Correct Answer: 450
Solution :
Monthly consumption of milk of 90 students in a school hostel = 183 L
Per capita milk consumption = $\frac{183}{90}$ = $\frac{61}{30}$
Increased monthly ration of milk = 915 L
Total number of students accommodated = $\frac{915}{\frac{61}{30}}$
= $\frac{915×30}{61}$
= 15 × 30
= 450
Hence, the correct answer is 450.
