What does the abbreviation 'c/o' represent?

  1. care of

  2. complaining of, complaint(s) of

  3. composition of

  4. coordinate of

The correct answer is: complaining of, complaint(s) of

The abbreviation 'c/o' most commonly stands for "care of", which is used to indicate that mail or packages should be sent to a different person or address. 'Complaining of' and 'composition of' are not commonly used to represent 'c/o', and 'coordinate of' is not an accurate representation of what the abbreviation stands for.
