4. A bartender stole champagne from a bottle that contained 50% of spirit and he replaced what he had stolen with champagne having 20% spirit. The bottle then contained only 25% spirit. How much of the bottle did he steal?A. 80%B. 83.33%C. 85.71%D. 88.88%E. None of these

• Considering the situation as mixing 20% spirit into 50% spirit making 25% spirit champagne This is a alligation problem
  so, 20 25 50
  25 5
  5 1
  So, mixed in the ratio of 5:1 means bartender mixed 20% spirit into original 50% spirit in the ratio of 5:1 Means 5/6 of the bottle is stoled by bartender which is 5/6*100 = 83.33%
