A mixture contains 80% acid and rest water. Part of the mixture that should be removed and replaced by same amount of water to make the ratio of acid and water 4 : 3 is
D.
Let the total quantity of mixture be 70 litres.
∴ Quantity of acid =
After replacement the quantity of acid
Therefore, (56 - 40) = 16 litres of acid is removed from the original mixture.
Let x litres of the mixture is removed and replaced by water
∴ Required Part of the mixture =
