Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e 

Explanation:

Let the capacity of bottles be 100 units.

Total capacity = 100 + 100 = 200 units

Apple juice in 1st bottle = 100 - 35 = 65

Apple juice in 2nd bottle = 100 - 33(1/3) = 200/3

The percentage of apple juice in the mixture = 3 × 395/200 × 100 = %
