80 litre mixture of milk and water contains 10% milk. How much milk (in litres) must be added to make water percentage in the mixture as 80%?
Quantity of mixture = 80 litres
Quantity of milk = $$\frac{10}{100}\times80=8$$ litres
=> Quantity of water = $$80-8=72$$ litres
Let $$x$$ litres of water is added
According to ques,
=> $$\frac{80}{100}(x+80)=72$$
=> $$x+80=72\times\frac{5}{4}=90$$
=> $$x=90-80=10$$ litres
=> Ans - (C)
