In a mixture of 40 litres, the ratio of milk and water is 4:1. How much water must be added to the mixture so that the ratio of milk and water becomes 2:3

For questions like this always use this formula
C1V1 + C2V2 = C(V1+V2)
Where C1 is the concentration of first liquid, V1 is the volume of the first liquid
C2 is the concentration of second liquid, V2 is the volume of the second liquid
C is the concentration of the final liquid created by mixing V1 and V2 volumes of the 2 liquids respectively

Base is Water:
volume of water added = v
1/5 * 40 + 1*v = 3/5 *(40+v)
8 + v = 24 + 0.6v
16 = 0.4v
v = 40
