    B 150 lit Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 144 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 = 0.20Q
    And, quantity of milk in vessel = 0.80Q
    (0.20Q + 120)/0.80Q = 52/48
    9.6Q + 5760 = 41.6Q
    32Q = 5760
    Q = 180 l
    Quantity of milk in vessel = 180 × 80/100 = 144 l
