Let’s suppose three numbers are 3x, 4x, 5x. According to question:
3x + 5x = 76 + 4x
=> 4x = 76
=> x = 19
The largest number is 5x => 5*19 = 95

Total quantity of mixture = 60L
Milk and water are in ratio of 2:3. Thus,
Milk = 24L, Water = 36L
Let ‘x’ is added to mixture, so that new ratio is 1:2,
New quantity of milk = 24, water = 36+x
=> 24/36+x = ½
=> x = 12
