Answer:

The amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's "x" be amount of water in (liters) added to 15 liters of 40% of sugar syrup.

Now find the amount of sugar syrup = 40% of 15

= 0.4 × 15

The amount of sugar syrup = 6 Liters

To dilute  30% we need to find amount of water to be added.

So,

30% of (15 + x) = 6

0.3 × (15 + x) = 6

4.5 + 0.3x = 6

0.3x = 6 - 4.5

0.3x = 1.5

Dividing both sides, by 0.3, we get

x = 5

So, the amount of water need to be added is 5 liters.
