    Question


    In a vessel water is 40% of the milk. When 28 litres of mixture are taken out from the vessel and 10 litres of water is added in the remaining mixture, then quantity of water becomes 60% of the milk. Find the initial quantity of milk?

    A.

    70 litres

    B.

    21 litres

    C.

    14 litres

    D.

    35 litres

    E.

    49 litres

    Correct option is A


    Let total quantity of milk in vessel initially = 5x
    So, total quantity of water in vessel initially = 5x = 2x

    x=14 liters
    Initial quantity of milk = 5x = 14 ×5=70 liters
