Answer» INITIAL AMOUNT of wine = 60 LITERS. After replacing 10 liters of wine with water ⇒ There is 50 liters of wine and 10 liters of water. ⇒ Wine to water RATIO = 5: 1 10 liters of this mixture is removed and REPLACED by water. ⇒ Amount of wine removed from the mixture = (5/6) × 10 = 25/3 liters. Amount of water removed = (1/6) × 10 = 5/3 liters. Final amount of wine in the mixture = 50 – 25/3 = 125/3 = $(41\frac{2}{3})$ liters. |
