For daily it's 180%, for hourly it's 150%, for monthly it's 140%.

225% is correct.
Water mains are Designed for a maximum of ( Max hourly demand or Coincident draft).
Maximum hourly demand = 270% of av hourly demand (i.e. 2.7 * Qav).
Coincident Draft includes Maximum daily demand which is 180% of Average daily demand (i.e. 1.8 * Qav).
Thus we take an average of these two (270+180)/2 = 225%.
I hope this is clarified.

If daily then 180% and if hourly then 150%.

The question is wrong.
Generally distribution system should be designed for maximum hourly consumption of maximum day i.e. Peak Demand or Coincident draft, whichever is more.
God-rich formula to find peak demand to an average demand ratio.
P = 180 x t^ (-0. 1)
Where P = percent of the annual average draft for the time 't' in days.
So, I think 180% is the right answer.

Thanks everyone for explaining it.

I don't understand? Please explain me clearly.

Design criteria - coincidental draft or max hourly demand.
Max hourly demand = 1.5 x max daily demand.
= 2.7 x avg daily demand.
= 270%.
Max hourly demand = 1.5 x max daily demand.
= 2.7 x avg daily demand.
= 270%.

Can anyone justify it, please?

Maximum daily demand = 1.8 x average daily demand.
Maximum hourly demand of maximum day i.e. Peak demand.
= 1.5 x average hourly demand.
= 1.5 x Maximum daily demand/24.
= 1.5 x (1.8 x average daily demand)/24.
= 2.7 x average daily demand/24.
= 2.7 x annual average hourly demand.
Maximum hourly demand of maximum day i.e. Peak demand.
= 1.5 x average hourly demand.
= 1.5 x Maximum daily demand/24.
= 1.5 x (1.8 x average daily demand)/24.
= 2.7 x average daily demand/24.
= 2.7 x annual average hourly demand.
