- Statement 1: A is 75% less than B. This means A = 25% of B or A = 0.25B.

- Statement 2: C is 75% of the difference between A and B. The difference is B - A. Therefore, C = 0.75(B - A).

- Substituting A from Statement 1: C = 0.75(B - 0.25B) = 0.75(0.75B) = 0.5625B.

- Now calculate: C compared to A = (C - A)/A * 100%.

- Substitute A = 0.25B and C = 0.5625B.

- C compared to A = (0.5625B - 0.25B) / 0.25B * 100% = 125%.

Option 1: 125%
