"Describe" is to explain about and two "about" cannot be used. So, answer is C.

Option: A.

Here "About" is not required as problem can't be followed by about.

C is also incorrect. Reason: In any sentence, same word should not be repeated.

Please let me know, why 'c' is correct? can any one explain the grammar rules?

@Shivi is right we don't use about just after the discuss/describe/illustrate.

Prasanna said:   1 decade ago
"So" and "about",both are unnecessary in this sentence..

I think option C is incorrect.

That I found it is very easy to work it out.

Option C.

That I found very easy to work it out? whether "it" is necessary?
