Read Solution (Total 1)

The answer to this question is 6 litres.
We see that ratio of milk and water is given as 24:5
out of 87 litres existing, 29 litres is sold. Remaining = 58 litres out of which now 48 is milk and 10 is water.
further milk and water are added in the ratio 3:1.
say 3x and 1x are added so resultant mixture is now in the ratio 9:2
therefore 48+3x/10+x=9/2
equate to get the answer
