$\begin{aligned}&\text{Total milk = 60 litres}\\ &\text{Drawn off = 12 litres}\\ &\frac{\text{ Final quantity }}{\text{ Initial quantity }}=\left(1-\frac{x}{c}\right)^t\\ &\text{X = Replaced quantity}\\ &\text{C = Capacity}\\ &\text{T = Number of process}\\ &\frac{\text { Final quantity }}{\text { Initial quantity }}=\left(1-\frac{12}{60}\right)^{2} \\ &=\left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{2} \\ &=\frac{16}{25} \end{aligned}$ Ratio of milk and water in the resultant mixture : = 16 : 9
