1). \(7\frac{4}{5}\)%2). \(5\frac{4}{5}\)%3). \(3\frac{5}{7}\)%4). \(7\frac{9}{5}\)%

Answer»

Given, two litres of a mixture of spirit and water contains 12% water.

Volume of water = 12% of 2 = 0.24 litres

Now, this is added to 3 litres of another mixture of spirit and water CONTAINING 5% of water.

Total volume of water = 0.24 + 5% of 3 = 0.39 litres

% of water in the mixture $(= \;\frac{{0.39}}{5} \times 100\% \; = \;\frac{{39}}{5}\% \; = \;7\frac{4}{5}\% )$
