Answer»

RATIO of milk and water = 64 ? 17

∴ Ratio of remaining milk and initial milk = 64 ? (64 + 17) = 64 ? 81

Let, total AMOUNT of container = K liter

$(\therefore \frac{{remaining\;milk}}{{initial\;milk}} = {(1 - \frac{{quantity\;taken\;out}}{{total\;amount}})^n})$ [where n = number of attempts]

$(\Rightarrow \frac{{64}}{{81}} = {(1 - \frac{4}{k})^2})$

⇒ 8/9 = 1 - 4/k

⇒ 4/k = 1 - 8/9

⇒ 4/k = 1/9

⇒ k = 36

∴ total amount of the container = 36 LITRES
