A tank contains 200 liters of brine holding 50 kg of salt in solution. Water containing 125 g of salt per liter flows into the tank at the rate of 12 liters per minute, and the mixture, kept uniform by stirring, flows out at the same rate. Find the time it takes for the concentration in the tank to be equal to 0.23 kg/L.
