salary increment of Harry = $100
the salary increment of Sally was 200% more than that of Harry = $100 + (200/100)*$100
Salary increment of Sally = $300
salary increment of Ron was 300% of the salary increment of Sally = $300 *(300/100)
Salary of Ron = $900
Option C is correct

The phrase "200% more than" means "3 times the amount." Since the salary increment of Harry was 100, Sally's was 3 x 100 = 300.

The phrase "300% of" means "3 times," and since Ron's was 300% of Sally's, we have 3 x 300 = 900.
