    C.

    5007\frac{500}{7}​​

    D.

    8009\frac{800}{9}​​

    Correct option is C

    Amount of Milk in Mixture1 : 8×80100=6.4 litres8× \frac{80}{100} = 6.4\, litres​​

    Amount of Milk in Mixture 2: 6 litres×60100=3.6 litres6 \text{ litres} \times \frac{60}{100} = 3.6 \text{ litres
    6×60100=3.6litres6× \frac{60}{100} = 3.6\, litres6×10060=3.6litres

    Total Volume of Mixture = 8 + 6 = 14 litres

    Total Amount of Milk = 6.4 litres+3.6 litres=10 litres6.4 \text{ litres} + 3.6 \text{ litres} = 10 \text{ litres}6.4 litres+3.6 litres=10 litres

    % of milk in the mixture = 1014×100=5007%\frac{10}{14}×100 = \frac{500}{7} {\%}​​
