Answer:

110 liters of water

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the number of liters of water added is shown below:

Let us assume the x be the liters of water

f(x) represents the salt percentage in the mixture

Given that

f(x) = 1.2 ÷ x + 10

f(x) = 1% = 1 ÷ 100  = 0.01

Now out the f(x) value in the above equation

0.01 = 1.2 ÷ x + 10

x + 10  = 1.2 ÷ 0.01

x + 10 = 120

x = 110 liters
