The bath

Dad poured 50 liters of water at 60°C into the tub. How much cold water must be added at 10°C to obtain a bath that has a temperature of 40°C?

Correct result:

V₂ =  33.3333 l

Solution:

$$\begin{gathered} V_1=50\text{ l } \\ {t}_1=60^{\circ }\text{C } \\ {t}_2=10^{\circ }\text{C } \\ t=40^{\circ }\text{C } \\ {V}_1\cdot t_1+V_2\cdot t_2=(V_1+V_2)\cdot t \\ 50\cdot 60+V_2\cdot 10=(50+V_2)\cdot 40 \\ 30V_2=1000 \\ {V}_2={\displaystyle \frac{100}{3}}\doteq 33.333333=33.3333\text{ l} \end{gathered}$$
