A 120 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 100 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 195 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 = 0.25Q
And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.75Q
(0.25Q + 40)/0.75Q = 35/65
16.25Q + 2600 = 26.25Q
10Q = 2600
Q = 260 l
Quantity of milk in vessel = 260 × 75/100 = 195 lit
