1. Calculate the net angle of turn.

A 14\frac{1}{4}-turn is 90∘90^\circ.
Net turn =135∘ anti-clockwise−90∘ clockwise=45∘ anti-clockwise= 135^\circ \text{ anti-clockwise} - 90^\circ \text{ clockwise} = 45^\circ \text{ anti-clockwise}.

2. Determine the final facing direction.

Turning 45∘45^\circ anti-clockwise from North results in facing North-West.

3. Identify the point that lies North-West of K on the grid.

On a square grid, North-West corresponds to moving left and up by an equal number of units.
From K (5,4)(5, 4), moving 22 units left and 22 units up gives (3,6)(3, 6), which is the exact location of point C.
