Solution

The correct option is B 200 mL
All the units of measurement are same. We can add all three quantities.

25
+60
+75
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
160 mL
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯

160 mL will overflow in a 150 mL can. Hence, 200 mL is the minimum capacity of the can which can hold the total quantity of kerosene.
