All of the answer choices that you are given are incorrect. I have calculated it in all different ways and get the same thing and it is none of those. The correct answer would be -75 though.
Change in level is given by :
C = increase in level - decrease in level.
Now,
Decrease in level in March is 2 1/4 = 9/4 inches.
Increase in level in April is 1 5/8 = 13/8 inches.
Putting value of these in above equation, we get :
C = 13/8 - 9/4
C = 13/8 - 18/8
C = -5/8 inches
Therefore, the overall level after April will decrease by 5/8 inches.
Hence, option 4. is correct.
It should be 1/4 because one third of three fourths is one fourth. I hope this helps!
