Its standard ratio for Portland cement is 30%. So 19 lit is enough.

They are not given any W/C then how you concluded answer? Explain.

Dipbesu said:   5 years ago
Minimum W/C ratio 0.38.
So required water= 50 x 0.38 = 19lt.

19 litres of water is enough to hydrate one bag of cement.

w/c ratio =.4
Then weight of water .45x50=22.5.

Mahim said:   5 years ago
W/c ratio should be between .35 to .45.

Manish Thakur said:   7 years ago
Standard W/C ratio, 0.45 * 50 = 22.5.

According to me, the answer is 20lts.
