Acc to the question, Rajesh has a container which has a mixture of wine and water in it in the ratio 4:1.
Amount of wine = 4/5.
Amount of water = 1/5
Let the amount spilled out be y.
Then present amount of the wine will be (4/5 - 4y/5).
Then present amount of the water will be (1/5 - y/5 + y).
wine : water = (4/5 - 4y/5) : (1/5 - y/5 + y) = 3 : 2
or, (4 - 4y) : (1 + 4y) = 3 : 2
or, 8 - 8y = 3 + 12y.
or, 20y = 5
or, y = 1/5 [Ans]
Therefore, Rajesh has added 20% of water.
