Answer:
20% alcohol means 0.2 litre of alcohol in 1 litre solution {Sol. A}
70% alcohol means 0.7 litre of alcohol in 1 litre solution {Sol. B}
60% alcohol means 0.6 litre of alcohol in 1 litre solution
The Final solution contains 50 litres of 60% alcohol. Thus, the total amount of alcohol in final solution is: 0.6*50= 30 litres
Let the amount of Sol. A added be x litres and amount of Sol. B added be 50-x litres. [50-x because total volume of solution is 50 litres]
Now equating the amounts of alcohol as:
0.2x + 0.7(50-x) = 30
=> x = 10 litres
