$M$ grams of steam at $100^{\circ} C$ is mixed with $200 \; g$ of ice at its melting point in a thermally insulated container. If it produces liquid water at $40^{\circ} C$ [heat of vaporization of water is $540 \; cal/g$ and heat of fusion of ice is $80 \; cal/g$],the value of $M$ is:

How many grams of ice at $0 \, ^\circ \text{C}$ will be melted by $1 \, \text{g}$ of steam at $100 \, ^\circ \text{C}$? (Latent heat of fusion of ice $L = 80 \, \text{cal/g}$ and latent heat of vaporization of water $L' = 540 \, \text{cal/g}$)
