Research suggests that we forget about 40% of interesting information over the first 24 hours after learning it. This percentage can increase further over time, but it is difficult to estimate exactly how much information will be retained after seven years. Therefore, choice C is the best option as it is the closest to the estimated forgetting percentage.
