Recent Answer : Added by Abdul On 2022-05-17 08:56:53:

Ans- 6,6 litres
Let x Litres from can1 (where, water = x/4 litres and milk = 3x/4 litres)
Now
12-x liters from can 2 ( where, water = 6-x/2, milk = 6-x/2)

Now given
water/milk = 3/5
0.25x+6-0.5x / 0.75 +6-0.5x = 3/5
6-0.25x/6+0.25 = 3/5
Solve it you get
x = 6 litres from can1
Then 12-x= 12-6=6 litres from can2

so 1/20 for deposit
1/20(x)=50
hence x=1000
option c is the answer
