- Let's set C's income as \( C = 100 \).

- B's income is 24% more than C's, so \( B = 100 + 24 = 124 \).

- A's income is 40% of B's income, so \( A = 0.4 \times 124 = 49.6 \).

- To find how much more C's income is than A's, calculate: \( \frac{C - A}{A} \times 100 = \frac{100 - 49.6}{49.6} \times 100 \).

- Solve it: \( \frac{50.4}{49.6} \times 100 = 101.6 \%\).

- Thus, C's income is 101.6% more than A's.

- The correct option is Option:2, 101.6.
