Expert Answer
Water: Milk = 2: 13
Then, we have:
2x + 13x = 45
15x = 45
x = 3
Thus, in 45 litre,
Water = 6 litres
Milk = 39 litres
Let x litre of water be added to make the ratio of milk to water as 3: 1.
Then, we have:
39/6+x = 3:1
Now, solve this equation to get the value of x which is the required litre of water which must be added to get the given ratio.
