Q: In a mixture of milk and water the proportion of water by weight was 75%. If in 60 gm of mixture 15 gm water was added, what would be the percentage of water ? (Weight in gm) 1172 0

Answer : 1. "80%"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 80% Explanation: Water in 60 gm mixture=60 x 75/100 = 45 gm. and Milk = 15 gm. After adding 15 gm. of water in mixture, total water = 45 + 15 = 60 gm and weight of a mixture = 60 + 15 = 75 gm. So % of water = 100 x 60/75 = 80%.

Q: The payment per hour for a daily-wages employee is increased by 33.33 and the working time is reduced by 33.33%. What is the percentage change in the employee's income ? 1270 0
