Simple,

Vol of cement bag of 50 Kg = 0.035 m3.
And, per 1 m3 we need 1000Kg of water.
So, Water required = 1000*0.035 = 35 Kg.
Since there is no mention about w/c ratio.

1m^3 = 1000kg or 1000lit.
1m^3 = density of cement / weight of one bag.
1m^3 = 1440/50=28.8 bags.
28.8bags = 1000kg.
1bag = 1000/28.8 = 34.7~ 35kg or 35 lit.
So Answer is correct.

Minimum water cement ratio is 0.45.
with that 50kg(1bag) x 0.45= 22.5 is the correct answer.

M10:- 34 ltr
M15:- 32
M20:- 30
M25:- 28

The unit is wrong. It should be 35 lit water is required for 1 bag cement where as 22.5 kg water is required for 1 bag cement.
1 m^3 = 1000 lit.
Then find 0.0347 m^3= ? lit.
Ans will be 34.7 lit = 35 lit.
