(D) The formula for the quantity of milk remaining after $n$ operations is given by:$	ext{Remaining Milk} = x \left(1 - \frac{y}{x}ight)^n$Where:$x = 50 \, 	ext{litres}$ (initial quantity of milk)$y = 5 \, 	ext{litres}$ (quantity replaced in each operation)$n = 3$ (total number of operations,as the process was repeated two more times after the first)Substituting the values:$	ext{Remaining Milk} = 50 \left(1 - \frac{5}{50}ight)^3$$= 50 \left(1 - \frac{1}{10}ight)^3$$= 50 \left(\frac{9}{10}ight)^3$$= 50 	imes \frac{729}{1000}$$= \frac{729}{20} = 36.45 \, 	ext{litres}$
