Original ratio of milk and water = 5 ∶ 2, New ratio after adding 4 liters of water = 5 ∶ 4
Concept used:
Quantity of milk stays the same, so water must have increased from 2 parts to 4 parts

Quantity of milk = (5/2) × 4 ⇒ Quantity of milk = 10 liters
Therefore, the quantity of milk in the mixture is 10 liters.
