Please note the RL of the road is given not staff readings.
So, the right answer is B.
So, the right answer is B.

There are giving RL's not Staf reading.
So +grade in forward side.

The answer given is right.
Two gradients are there A to B, B to C.
Both have the same gradient i.e. 1 in 100.
So, when two gradients are joined, the formula for resulting gradient is, n1 - n2.
So here A to B is a positive gradient ( n1), whereas B to C is a negative gradient (-n).
