We can get it from flow index value, I.
n1 = 10; w1 = 70%.
n2 = 100; w2 = 20%.
Flow index (I) = (w1-w2)/log(n2/n1) = 50;
wL = Ilog (n2/25)+w2;
log(2) = 0.301.
wL = 50.10%.
OPTION B.
n1 = 10; w1 = 70%.
n2 = 100; w2 = 20%.
Flow index (I) = (w1-w2)/log(n2/n1) = 50;
wL = Ilog (n2/25)+w2;
log(2) = 0.301.
wL = 50.10%.
OPTION B.

By interpolation wL = 61.67.
By flow index method wL= 50.
By flow index method wL= 50.

I got 61.65% any one explain how it is 65%?

Hello @Mr.V Ramesh.
How come it possible Liquid limit = 70*(10/25)^0121 = 89.55%?
How come it possible Liquid limit = 70*(10/25)^0121 = 89.55%?

I have a question to @Mr. V. Ramesh that how 89.55 becomes 88 and 23.65 becomes 23?

As per graph it comes near 65% and as per flow index its value come 50.10%.
Please anyone explain right one method.

Try it with coordinate geometry.
My answer is 63.33%.
