Correct option is B

Given
5% of p=10 10% of q=5r=qp5\% \ of \ p = 10\\\ \\10\% \ of\ q = 5r = \frac{q}{p}​​

Solution
Step 1: Find p
\frac{5}{100} \times p = 10
p = \frac{10 \times 100}{5} = 200

Step 2: Find q
10100×q=5 q=5×10010=50\frac{10}{100} \times q = 5\\\ \\q = \frac{5 \times 100}{10} = 50​​

Step 3: Find r 

r=qp=50200=14r = \frac{q}{p} = \frac{50}{200} = \frac{1}{4}​​
