Three containers $C_{1}, C_{2}$ and $C_{3}$ have water at different temperatures. The table below shows the final temperature $T$ when different amounts of water (given in litres) are taken from each container and mixed (assume no loss of heat during the process).
$C_{1}$$C_{2}$$C_{3}$$T$
$1 \ l$$2 \ l$$-$$60^{\circ} C$
$-$$1 \ l$$2 \ l$$30^{\circ} C$
$2 \ l$$-$$1 \ l$$60^{\circ} C$
$1 \ l$$1 \ l$$1 \ l$$\theta$

The value of $\theta$ (in $^{\circ} C$ to the nearest integer) is

  • A
    $45$
  • B
    $48$
  • C
    $55$
  • D
    $50$
