40 litres is split in ratio 2:3
So dye = 16 l and water = 24 l
Now proportion is 2:5
Already in the ratios 2:3
2 : 5
Now, 16 l of dye : 40 l of water
16 l of water is added
$$frac{1}{4}$th is removed from the proportion 12 l of dye : 30 l of water Now how many dye has to be added to make 2 : 3 2 : 3 12 l of dye : 30 l of water Multiplication factor is 10$3 × 10 = 30)
2 × 10 = 20 l of dye in total,
So 8 l of dye has to be added
