    B 100 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 52 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 130 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let total mixture in vessel be Q liters.
    Initial quantity of water in vessel = 0.20Q
    And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.80Q
    (0.20Q + 35)/0.80Q = 48/52
    10.4Q + 1820 = 38.4Q
    28Q = 1820
    Q = 65 l
    Quantity of milk in vessel = 65 × 80/100 = 52 l
