Each 5 ml of an Ayurvedic cough expectorant contains 50 mg Kur, 25 mg Suth, 25 mg Pipul, 250 mg Honey, and 200 mg Tulsi. If 20% of Tulsi was replaced with Honey, the final mixture contains what % of Tulsi? Correct Answer 29.09%

Total quantity of the mixture = (50 + 25 + 25 + 250 + 200) mg = 550 mg

20% of Tulsi = 20% of 200 mg = 40 mg

New quantity of Tulsi = 200 – 40 = 160 mg

% of Tulsi in the mixture = 160/550 × 100 = 29.09%
