All the answer value and unit is wrong.

As per latest technology M200 and M400 grade of concrete is using in other country like Canada and New Zealand.

Where is used M300?

Instead if kg/cm^2 they should have mentioned n/mm^2.

But ask about Permissible compressive strength of concrete.

M300 grade of concrete which is in kg/m2. When we convert it in n/mm2 we get m30. That is its strength is 30n\mm2.

It tells about the "characteristic compressive strength" @Sandeep.

M300 in in kg/cm2.
We convert this to N/mm2.

1kg = 9.8N nearly 10N.
M300kg/cm2 = M300*10N/(10*10MM2) = M30N/MM2.

For M30 we know 30N/mm2 i.e 300kg/cm2.

But,in question asking for permissible comp strength. So, to obtained it divide by 3(factor's of safety for concrete)hence 100kg/cm2 is the right answer.

1kg = 9.8N nearly 10N.
M300kg/cm2 = M300*10N/(10*10MM2) = M30N/MM2.

For M30 we know 30N/mm2 i.e 300kg/cm2.

We know that in M20, M stand to mix and 20 is the characteristic compressive strength of concrete, so as in this Q. 300 is the right answer.
