Isn't question asking less than 25% ? With 15 months the FIAT cars will be equal to 25% of the total cars

ans B is the correct
3 cars are sold every month it means 45 cars would be sold until 15 months and 35 cars will remain in the company now we have to find the percentage of 35/140*100 which is 25 and all the other option will cross the limit of 25 thus ans is B

(16*7=105
35+105=140)
