Vinod is a milkman and he has 2 cane of milk. The first cane has half water and half milk. The second cane has a quarter of water and rest is milk. How much milk should he mix from each can so as to get 12 litres of milk such that the ratio of water to milk is 3:5?

Assume 6 liters are taken from the first cane and 6 liters from the second cane to form the 12 liters of mixture. The first cane provides 3 liters of water and 3 liters of milk, while the second cane provides 1.5 liters of water and 4.5 liters of milk. The combined mixture contains 4.5 liters of water and 7.5 liters of milk, which simplifies exactly to the required ratio of 3 to 5.
