@Pranav.
That is Coefficient of Compression index.

Cc = Change in e/log (Final pressure/Initial pressure).
= (1.50-1.25)/log(50/25) = 0.8304.
= (1.50-1.25)/log(50/25) = 0.8304.

Coefficient of compressibility = change in e/change in stress.
= (1.50-1.25)/(50-25).
= 0.01.
= (1.50-1.25)/(50-25).
= 0.01.
