Q8. A vessel is filled with liquid, 3 parts of which are water and 5 parts syrup. How much of the mixture must be drawn off and replaced with water so that the mixture may be half water and half syrup?
Answer : Option C
Explaination / Solution:

Suppose the vessel initially contains 8 litres of liquid.

Let x litres of this liquid be replaced with water.

Quantity of water in new mixture =3 -3xxlitres
8

Quantity of syrup in new mixture =5 -5xlitres
8

3 -3xx=5 -5x
88

 5x + 24 = 40 - 5x

 10x = 16

 x =8.
5

So, part of the mixture replaced =8x1=1.
585
