How many liters of water must be added to 30 liters of alcohol to make a solution that is 25%



How many liters of water must be added to 30 liters of alcohol to make a solution that is 25%..

Answer / Vikas Kumar Singh

To create a 25% solution, we need to have 75% of the final volume as water and the remaining 25% as alcohol. We are given that the initial volume is 30 liters of alcohol, so if we let W be the amount of water needed, then 30 + W = 4 * 25 / 100. Solving for W, we find that W = (4/100) * 30 - 30 = 1.2 liters. So, 1.2 liters of water must be added.n

Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 20 coins are stacked one above the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack. Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0- move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2- move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top
