12%

Explanation:

Sure, let’s break it down:

- For Madhu, the value 'r' is given as 50.

- Quantity of milk added for Madhu = 3r = 3 × 50 = 150 L

- Quantity of water added for Madhu = r = 50 L

- The question asks: What percentage is water added compared to milk added?

- Here’s the calculation:

Percentage = (Water added / Milk added) × 100

= (50 / 150) × 100

= 33.33%

Let’s look at the options:

1. 34.67%

2. 5.89%

3. 20.69%

4. 58.75%

5. 12%

Out of these, the closest correct value is option 1, 34.67%.

So the correct answer is:

Option 1, 34.67%

What this really means is: For every 150 liters of milk Madhu gets, 50 liters of water is added, which comes out to about a third—or 33.33%—not 20.69%.

The right pick is option 1.
