      C 7:1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 6:1 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Initial quantity of water in the mixture = 200 ร— (4/5) = 200 litres After removing 55 litres of the mixture, quantity of water = (250 โ€“ 55) ร— (4/5) = 195 ร— (4/5) = 156 litres Therefore required ratio = 156:26 = 6:1
