c =  12.5 %

Solution:

p=300 Kc/h v=p+p/3=300+300/3=400 Kc/h  h2=60 h h2=h1−h1/3 h1=h2/(1−13)=60/(1−13)=90 h  a=100⋅ v−pv=100⋅ 400−300400=25=25p=300 \ \text{Kc/h} \ \\ v=p + p/3=300 + 300/3=400 \ \text{Kc/h} \ \\ \ \\ h_{ 2 }=60 \ \text{h} \ \\ h_{ 2 }=h_{ 1 }-h_{ 1 }/3 \ \\ h_{ 1 }=h_{ 2 }/(1-\dfrac{ 1 }{ 3 } )=60/(1-\dfrac{ 1 }{ 3 } )=90 \ \text{h} \ \\ \ \\ a=100 \cdot \ \dfrac{ v-p }{ v }=100 \cdot \ \dfrac{ 400-300 }{ 400 }=25=25 \\%
b=h1−h2=90−60=30 hb=h_{ 1 }-h_{ 2 }=90-60=30 \ \text{h}
