This question is a real head-scratcher. I'm going to go with B) 30% just because it sounds more plausible than the others. Or maybe I should just roll the dice and pick randomly...

Definitely A) 20%. Anything higher than that and the supplier would be gouging their customers. 25% mark-up, 20% profit margin, simple math.

But if the mark-up is 25%, then the profit margin would be 30%

D) 15% has to be the answer. I mean, who would sell stuff at a 75% profit margin? That's highway robbery!

Gotta be C) 75%. I mean, if the mark-up is 25%, the profit margin has to be way higher than that, right? Anything less would be a rip-off!

I think the answer is B) 30%. You can't have a 25% mark-up and a 20% profit margin, that just doesn't make sense.
