How do you get 89.55 by this formula?
= W*(N/25)^0.121.
= W*(N/25)^0.121.

Answer is 50.
For a particular soil, slope does not change in flow index curve to determine the liquid limit for a soil. In this question flow index is also 50 and put this 50 value equal to formula and find the liquid limit for given data.
