1. Correct Answer: Option A: *7 : 17*
 2. Explanation:
     To solve this problem, we need to determine the total amount of milk and water in the pot and then find their ratio.
     Step 1: Calculate the amount of milk in each glass.
         ○ Let the total volume of each glass be *V*.
         ○ The first glass is \( \frac{1}{3} \) full of milk, so the amount of milk in the first glass is:
       \[
       \frac{1}{3}V
       \]
         ○ The second glass is \( \frac{1}{4} \) full of milk, so the amount of milk in the second glass is:
       \[
       \frac{1}{4}V
       \]
     Step 2: Calculate the total amount of milk.
         ○ Total milk from both glasses:
       \[
       \frac{1}{3}V + \frac{1}{4}V = \frac{4}{12}V + \frac{3}{12}V = \frac{7}{12}V
       \]
     Step 3: Calculate the total amount of water.
         ○ Since each glass is filled up with water, the amount of water added to each glass is the remaining volume after the milk.
         ○ Water in the first glass:
       \[
       V - \frac{1}{3}V = \frac{2}{3}V
       \]
         ○ Water in the second glass:
       \[
       V - \frac{1}{4}V = \frac{3}{4}V
       \]
         ○ Total water from both glasses:
       \[
       \frac{2}{3}V + \frac{3}{4}V = \frac{8}{12}V + \frac{9}{12}V = \frac{17}{12}V
       \]
     Step 4: Calculate the ratio of milk to water.
         ○ The ratio of milk to water is:
       \[
       \frac{\frac{7}{12}V}{\frac{17}{12}V} = \frac{7}{17}
       \]
     Therefore, the ratio of milk to water in the pot is 7 : 17.
