• A. $15\%$
• B. $20\%$
• C. $25\%$
• D. $30\%$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $25\%$

A plot measures $6000$ square meter.

Omly $4500$ square meter of plot is allowed for construction.

Percentage of plot allowed for construction $=\frac{4500}{6000}\times 100=75\%$.
Thus, the percentage of plot to be left without construction $=100\%-75\%=25\%$.
