Answer:

Milk : water = 3 : 2

Milk = 15 l

Total quantity of the mixture = 25 l

Quantity of water = 25 - 15 = 10

∴ Quantity of water = 10 litres.

Alternate MethodLet the quatity of milk in mixture be 3x litres,

And water be 2x

According to the question,

⇒ 5x = 25

⇒ x = 5 litres

Milk = 3x = 3 × 5 = 15 litres

Water = 2x = 2 × 5 = 10 litres.

SOLUTION:

GIVEN:-

MILK:WATER=3:2

MILK = 15

TOTAL QUANTITY OF THE MIXTURE=25|

CALCULATION:

QUANTITY OF WATER= 25- 15=10

QUANTITY OF WATER = 10 LITRES

ALTERNATE METHOD

LET THE QUALITY OF MILK IN MIXTURE BE 3X LITRES AND WATER BE 2X.

ACCORDING TO THE QUESTION

5x = 25

x= 5 litres

MILK =3x=3x5=15 LITRES.

WATER =2x=2×5=10 LITRES

THE QUANTITY OF WATER IS 10 LITRES.

HENCE PROVED.
