Detailed Explanation & Answer
Given,
Total milk = 18 litres
Rate = 70 rs/lit.
Hence,
Total Cost = 70 x 18 = 1260

After mixing water,
Rate = 60 rs/lit.
Cost = 1260
Total Milk = Cost / rate = 1260/60 = 21

Difference in total milk before and after mixing water
21 - 18 = 3
दिया गया है,
कुल दूध = 18 लीटर
दर = 70 रुपये/लीटर
अतः,
कुल लागत = 70 x 18 = 1260

पानी मिलाने के बाद,
दर = 60 रुपये/लीटर
लागत = 1260
कुल दूध = लागत / दर = 1260/60 = 21

पानी मिलाने से पहले और बाद में कुल दूध में अंतर
21 - 18 = 3
