Explanation:

- Let's first calculate the distance traveled by Car B. It travels at a speed of 50 km/hr for 7.5 hours. So, the distance is \(50 \times 7.5 = 375\) km.

- Car C travels 400 km at a speed that is 20% less than Car B's speed. Car B's speed is 50 km/hr, so Car C's speed is \(50 - (0.20 \times 50)\ = 40\) km/hr.

- We need to focus on the distances, not speeds for this question.

- Car B traveled 375 km while Car C traveled 400 km.

- The difference in distance traveled by Car B and Car C is \(400 - 375 = 25\) km.

Correct Answer: 4, 25 km
