Correct Answer: 7500 litres


Solution : Given: The price per litre of milk of all the brands is INR 40 per litre.
The total volume of the milk = $\frac{\text{The total amount}}{\text{The cost per litre}}$
The total amount = 62000 + 56000 + 72000 + 41000 + 69000 = 300000
The total volume of the milk = $\frac{300000}{40}$ = 7500 litres
Hence, the correct answer is 7500 litres.
