    A single refined-oil vessel contains 20% impurities. After double-refining it contains 4% impurities. How much of double refined oil an be obtained from 30 litres of single refined oil?

    24.0 litres

    Incorrect Answer

    24.8 litres

    Incorrect Answer

    25.0 litres

    Correct Answer

    25.5 litres

    Incorrect Answer
    Explanation:

    We are given:

    Single refined oil contains 20% impurities → 80% pure oil.

    After double-refining, the oil contains 4% impurities → 96% pure oil.

    We start with 30 litres of single refined oil.

    Step 1: Find how much pure oil is present in 30 litres of single refined oil.
    Since it contains 80% pure oil:

    Pure oil = 30 × 80/100 = 24 litres

    Step 2: Let the amount of double-refined oil be ?? lliters

    Since it contains 96% pure oil, we have:

    Pure oil in ?? litres of double-refined oil
    = ?? × 96/100 = 0.96

    We know the pure oil remains the same, i.e., 24 litres. So:

    0.96?? = 24
    ⇒ ?? = 24/0.96
    = 25
    Final Answer: 25 litres of double-refined oil can be obtained.
