    B 46.8 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 195 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 54 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 = 0.22Q
    And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.78Q
    (0.22Q + 12)/0.78Q = 35/65
    14.3Q + 780 = 27.3Q
    13Q = 780
    Q = 60 l
    Quantity of milk in vessel = 60 × 78/100 = 46.8 l
