Pure Milk contains 89% water.How much water should be added to form a sample of 22 litre containing 90% water?
Read Solution (Total 4)
-
- a sample of 22 litre containing 90% water will have 10% milk i.e. 2.2 ltr milk.
2.2 ltr milk in a mixture of 11% milk means total mixture is 100*2.2/11= 20 ltr.,
so 2 ltr water should be added in 20 ltr mixture of 89% water to make it 22 ltr mixture having 90% water. - 12 years agoHelpfull: Yes(36) No(7)
