Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

We have to look into the option were:

CPI 2005 > CPI 2004 > CPI 2003

else the country wouldn't experienced a positive inflation

and also

2005/2004 is higher than 2004/2003

to make true the statment that inflation during 2005 was higher than in 2004

Option A and option C meet the first requirement

Let's see if A pass the second requirement

Then 135/120 = 1,125 = 12.5% inflation

And   120/100 = 1.2     = 20% inflation

Option A do not pass this requirement

Option C

130/105  = 23.8%

105/100 = 5%

It sucess !
