Number System
In a 150-litre mixture of milk and water, the percentage of milk is 84%. How much water should be added so that the percentage of milk becomes 52.5% ?
In 150 litre, milk is 84%ie 150 x 84/100 = 126 litre Let us add x litres of waterTherefore, the quantity of mixture = 150 + x∴ 52.5% of (150 + x) = 126 litres 150 + x = 126x100/52.5 = 240 litres∴ x = 240 - 150 = 90 litres
Let the number of children be 'x' Therefore, each child will receiveX x 60/100 = 3x/5 chocolates∴ X x 3x/5 = 735∴ x² x 735x5/3 = 1225∴ x = 1225 = 35∴ Number of chocolates = 3x/5 = 21
Let the no. be xTherefore 68x / 100 - 35x / 100 = 1216 Therefore x = 1216 x 100 / 33Therefore 28% of x = 28x / 100 = 1216 x 100 / 33 x 28 / 100= 1216 x 100 x 28 / 33 x 1/100 = 1031.75
