Are you really unable to read the answer from the graph? Or is it just that you can't be bothered?

On the graph, it looks like the solubility of KClO3 is about 23-24 g/100 g water.
So, you could add about 13 g more KClO3

B) 13 grams is the correct answer.

from the graph of KClO₃, it is 23 g /100 g water
23 – 10 = 13 g
