A 100-litre mixture of milk and water contains 49 litres of milk. 'x' litres of this mixture is removed and replaced with an equal quantum of water. If the process is repeated once, then the concentration of the milk stands reduced at 25%. What is the value of x?
Select the correct option
A) 27.5 litres B) 26.67 litres C) 27.67 litres D) 28.57 litres E) 26 litres

Rationale: "working formula . . . initial concentration * initial volume = final concentration * final volume . let x is the part removed from 100 lts . 49 % ( 1 - x / 100 ) ^ 2 = 25 % * 100 % ( 1 - x / 100 ) ^ 2 = 25 / 49 - - - - - - > ( 1 - x / 100 ) ^ 2 = ( 5 / 7 ) ^ 2 100 - x = 500 / 7 x = 28.57 . . . ans d"
Answer: D
