$A$ small quantity of water of mass $m$ at temperature $\theta^{\circ} C$ is mixed with a large mass $M$ of ice which is at its melting point. If $s$ is the specific heat capacity of water and $L$ is the latent heat of fusion of ice,then the mass of ice melted is:

  • A
    $\frac{ML}{ms \theta}$
  • B
    $\frac{ms \theta}{ML}$
  • C
    $\frac{Ms \theta}{L}$
  • D
    $\frac{ms \theta}{L}$
