The slow sand filters can remove turbidity to the extent of 50 PPM.

For water having greater turbidity than 60 PPM then it is required to give preliminary treatment.

In slow sand filter water having turbidity more than 30 NTU can't be treated.

Here, the option of 50mg/l is not given so we take the least one (60mg/l).
