The Correct Option is B

Solution and Explanation

Step 1: Write every score in terms of Sonia's marks.
Let Sonia's score be $s$. Rohan's fixed score of 75 is given as 10 more than Sonia, so $s = 65$, which checks out independently. Rohit $= s+45$, Raman $= (s+45)-25 = s+20$, and Ravi $= (s+20)+34 = s+54$.

Step 2: Combine into a single expression for the percentage.
Maximum marks $= \text{Ravi's score} + 50 = (s+54)+50 = s+104$. So the required percentage is $\frac{s+54}{s+104} \times 100$.

Final Answer:
Substituting $s=65$: $\frac{119}{169} \times 100 \approx 70\%$, confirming option B. \[ \boxed{70\%} \]
