So in between 2 years Rs. 500 is increased => for a year 500/2 = 250
So, per year it is increasing Rs.250 then in 5 years => 250 x 5 = 1250
Hence, the initial amount must be 2500 - 1250 = Rs. 1250

Q:

In a pot, there is a mixture of milk and water in the ratio 4 : 5. If it is filled with an additional 8 litres of milk, the pot would be full and ratio of milk and water would become 6 : 5. Find the capacity of the pot ?

A) 11 lit B) 22 lit
C) 33 lit D) 44 lit
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 22 lit

Explanation:

Let the capacity of the pot be 'P' litres.
Quantity of milk in the mixture before adding milk = 4/9 (P - 8)
After adding milk, quantity of milk in the mixture = 6/11 P.
6P/11 - 8 = 4/9(P - 8)
10P = 792 - 352 => P = 44.

The capacity of the pot is 44 liters.
