A mixture contains sugar solution and coloured water in the ratio 5 : 8. If 22 litre of coloured water is added to the mixture, the ratio becomes 3 : 7. Find the initial quantity of sugar solution in the given mixture (in litres).
(5x + 8x) + 22 = (3y + 7y) 13x + 22 = 10y 5x = 3y (The new mixture has only coloured water added to it) y = (5/3)x x = 6 Therefore the Initial sugar solution quantity is 5x = 5 × 6 = 30 litres.
A mixture contains sugar solution and coloured water in the ratio 2 : 3. If 24 litres of coloured water is added to the mixture, the ratio becomes 2 : 5. Find the initial quantity of sugar solution in the given mixture (in litres).
