Answer: b) 80.2%
Explanation:
The relationship between the relative compaction & density index is shown as,
Rc = 80 + (0.2 x ID)
Where,
Rc is relative compaction.
ID is density index.
Substitute the value of density index as one; then the relative compaction will become,
Rc = 80 + (0.2 x 1)
Rc = 80 + 0.2
Rc = 80.2 %
