Solution

Sure, let's solve this step by step:

  1. Initially, the container has 40L of milk.

  2. When 4L of milk is taken out, the amount of milk left in the container is 40L - 4L = 36L.

  3. This process is repeated 2 more times. Each time, the amount of milk is reduced by 10% (because 4L is 10% of the initial 40L).

  4. After the first repetition, the amount of milk is 36L - 10% of 36L = 36L - 3.6L = 32.4L.

  5. After the second repetition, the amount of milk is 32.4L - 10% of 32.4L = 32.4L - 3.24L = 29.16L.

So, the amount of milk left in the container after the process is repeated 2 more times is 29.16L. Therefore, the correct option is 29.16L.
