  • Question
  • In a mixture of 60 litres, the ratio of milk and water is 2:1. What amount of water must be added to make the ratio of milk and water as 1:2?


  • Options
  • A. 42 Litres
  • B. 56 Litres
  • C. 60 Litres
  • D. 77 Litres

  • Correct Answer
  • 60 Litres 

    Explanation

    Ratio of milk and water = 2 : 1
    Quantity of milk = 60 X 2/3 = 40 litre
    Quantity of water = 20 litre
    To make ratio, 1: 2, we have to double the water that of milk
    So, water should be 80 litre.
    That means 80 ? 20 = 60 litre water to be added.
