1. In a 120 litre mixture of milk and water, water is only 25%. The milkman sold 20 litres of this mixture and then he added 16.2 litres of pure milk and 3.8 litres of pure water in the remaining mixture. What is the percentage of water in the final mixture?

Mixture = 120 litre, Water = 25% Quantity of water = $$frac{25}{100} imes 120 = 30$$ litre And milk = 120 - 30 = 90 litre After selling 20 litre of mixture, remaining mixture = 100 litre In 100 litre of mixture, amount of milk and water will remain in the same percent. Water = $$frac{25}{100} imes 100 = 25$$ litre And milk = 100 - 25 = 75 litre Now, he added 16.2 litre of milk and 3.8 litre of water. Milk = 75 + 16.2 = 91.2 litre And water = 25 + 3.8 = 28.8 litre Total new mixture = 120 litre $$ herefore$$ Required % = $$frac{28.8}{120} imes 100 = 24 \%$$
