    B 150 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 70 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 = 0.25Q
    And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.75Q
    (0.24Q + 100)/0.75Q = 50/50
    12.5Q + 5000 = 37.5Q
    25Q = 5000
    Q = 200 l
    Quantity of milk in vessel = 200 × 75/100 = 150 l
