What quantity of water should be added to 3 liters of 10 percent solution of sugar so that it becomes a 5 percent sugar solution?

If 3 litres has 10% solution of sugar, the sugar comprises 300ml (i.e. a tenth of 3000). If we want 300ml to be 5% then we need a total of 100/5 * 300 = 6,000ml (6 litres).
