Let the initial amount of mixture in Tank \(A\) be \(7x\).
The amount of paint and oil in \(96\) litres of mixture is \(80\) litres and \(16\) litres.
Thus given,
\(\frac{3x+80}{4x+16} =\frac{ 5}{4}\)
or, \(12x+320 = 20x+80\)
or, \(x = 30\)
Total mixture in Tank \(A\) = \(210+96 = 306\)
Thus, \(306\) litres from Tank \(B\) need to be poured into Tank \(A\).
Hence, option A is the correct answer.
