To gain profit, a milkman adds 1.5 liter of water to a certain amount of milk. He sells the adulterated milk at Rs.28 per liter and pure milk costs Rs.36 per liter. Find the amount of milk.

  • A.5.25
  • B.6
  • C.5.5
  • D.5

Answer: A

Let the amount of milk be x.

36x = 28(x + 1.5)

36x = 28x + 42

8x = 42

x = 5.25 liters
