Let us say the capacity of the glass is X, and it is completely filled with milk,
If two-thirds of its content is poured out and replaced with water, the remaining fraction of the milk will be one third.
And this is said to be done three more times, that means a total of 4 times.
So the contents of Milk initially being X,
And after 4 times the contents will be, X(1 - 2/3)4 = X/81
Since the total contents is X, and the milk contents is X/81, the water contents will be 80X/81.

Answer is 1 : 80
