Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) 72.9 liters

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \text{Milk left} = \text{Initial milk} \left(1 - \frac{\text{volume removed}}{\text{total volume}}\right)^{\text{number of operations}} \) \( = 100 \left(1 - \frac{10}{100}\right)^3 \) \( = 100 (0.9)^3 \) \( = 100 \times 0.729 \) \( = 72.9 \text{ liters} \)
