In first container quantity of milk relative to water is $$\frac{5}{3} \times100$$ = 166.65%
In second container quantity of milk relative to water is $$\frac{2}{1} \times100$$ = 200%
In third container quantity of milk relative to water is $$\frac{2}{1} \times100$$ = 150%
In fourth container quantity of milk relative to water is $$\frac{7}{4} \times100$$ = 175%
