Answer is B, why are you taking the difference between 100 and 10 values?

W1=10, W2=20, N1=70, N2=100.
So,
I = (w2-w1)/log(n2/n1).
I = 64.51= 65%.
So,
I = (w2-w1)/log(n2/n1).
I = 64.51= 65%.

Use interpolation.
y-0.70=[(0.20-0.70)/(100-10)]*(25-10).
y=62% ans.
y-0.70=[(0.20-0.70)/(100-10)]*(25-10).
y=62% ans.

By taking interpolation,
Find value at 25 blows.
And answer is 61.66%.

Liquid Limit = (20-70)/(100-10) = (LL-70)/(25-10).
So, LL = 61.67%.
So, LL = 61.67%.

LL= water content at 20 blow.
100-10/20-70= 100-20/20-LL,
LL= 64.44.
100-10/20-70= 100-20/20-LL,
LL= 64.44.

(25-10)÷(100-25) = (X-70) ÷ (20-X),
After interpolate X = 61.66%.
After interpolate X = 61.66%.
