Two alcohol solutions, $A$ and $B$, are mixed in the proportion $1:3$ by volume. The volume of the mixture is then doubled by adding solution $A$ such that the resulting mixture has $72 \%$ alcohol. If solution $A$ has $60 \%$ alcohol, then the percentage of alcohol in solution $B$ is

The strength of a salt solution is $\mathrm{p} \%$ if $100 \mathrm{ml}$ of the solution contains $p$ grams of salt. Each of three vessels $\mathrm{A}, \mathrm{B}, \mathrm{C}$ contains $500 \mathrm{ml}$ of salt solution of strengths $10 \%, 22 \%$, and $32 \%$, respectively. Now, $100 \mathrm{ml}$ of the solution in vessel A is transferred to vessel B. Then, $100 \mathrm{ml}$ of the solution in vessel $B$ is transferred to vessel $C$. Finally, $100 \mathrm{ml}$ of the solution in vessel $C$ is transferred to vessel $A$. The strength, in percentage, of the resulting solution in vessel $A$ is

Vessels A and B contain 60 litres of alcohol and 60 litres of water, respectively. A certain volume is taken out from A and poured into B. After stirring, the same volume is taken out from B and poured into A. If the resultant ratio of alcohol and water in A is 15 : 4, then the volume, in litres, initially taken out from A is
