Ratio of milk and water = 2 : 1
Quantity of milk = 60 X 2/3 = 40 litre
Quantity of water = 20 litre
To make ratio, 1: 2, we have to double the water that of milk
So, water should be 80 litre.
That means 80 ? 20 = 60 litre water to be added.
Let the price of the mixed variety be Rs. x per kg. By rule of alligation, we have: Cost of 1 kg of Type 1 rice Cost of 1 kg of Type 2 rice Rs. 15 Mean Price Rs. x Rs. 20 (20 - x) (x - 15) ∴ (20 - x) = 2 (x - 15) 3 ⟹ 60 - 3x = 2x - 30 ⟹ 5x = 90 ⟹ x = 18.

The given solution has 75% milk.
Milk to be added has 100% milk.
Milk should be added to the given mixture in the ratio 15 : 10 or 3 : 2
Quantity of milk to be added = (3 / 2) × 6 = 9 liters.
