    A vessel contains a mixture of milk and water in the ratio of 5:3 respectively. How much of the mixture must be siphoned off and replaced with water, so that the mixture may be half milk and half water?

    1/3

    Correct Answer

    1/4

    Incorrect Answer

    1/7

    Incorrect Answer

    1/5

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:
    Final fraction of milk = initial fraction of milk * (1 – fraction of mixture taken out)n
    Where ‘n’ is the number of times process is done
    Thus, 1/2 = 5/8 * ( 1 – f )1
    i.e. 1 – f = 4/5
    i.e. f = 1/5
