Question

A can contains 180 litres of rose milk at Rs.40.5 per litre. How much water which is free of cost must be added to this can so that the cost of rose milk reduces to Rs.30 per litre? (In litres)

A.

67

B.

63 

C.

69

D.

65

Correct option is B

Initial quantity = 180 L
Cost per litre = Rs.40.5

Total cost = 180 × 40.5
= 7290

Let x litres of water be added.

New quantity = 180 + x

New cost per litre = 30

Total cost remains same:

7290 / (180 + x) = 30

7290 = 30(180 + x)

7290 = 5400 + 30x

30x = 1890

x = 63 litres
