Answers :

1) Answer: B

Milk = 2/3 * 180 = 120Liters

Water = 180 – 120 = 60Liters

120 = (180 + x) * 60%

12000=10800+60x

1200=60x

=> x = 20 Liters

2) Answer: C

Initial quantity = 8x

Oil = 5x

Water = 3x

Oil in 120 liters = 120 * 5/8 = 75 liters

Water in 120 liters = 120 * 3/8 = 45 liters

(5x – 75 + 25)/(3x – 45 + 5) = 2/1

6x – 80 = 5x – 50

x = 30

Initial quantity = 8 * 30 = 240 liters

3) Answer: A

(70 – x)/(x – 45) = 9/11

9x – 405 = 770 – 11x

20x = 1175

x = 58.75

4) Answer: B

Milk in the final quantity = 40 * (1 – 4/40)3

= 29.16 liters

5) Answer: B

Water = 60 * 25/75 = 20

(60 + 10)/(20 + x) = 2/1

40 + 2x = 70

x = 15
