To solve this problem, let's denote:

- The first number as \( A \),
- The second number as \( B \),
- The third number as \( C \).

The problem states:

1. The first number \( A \) is 75% of the second number \( B \). Mathematically, this can be written as:
   \[
   A = 0.75 \times B
   \]

2. The second number \( B \) is 48% of the third number \( C \):
   \[
   B = 0.48 \times C
   \]

We are asked to find the percentage of the first number \( A \) with respect to the third number \( C \).

### Solution

Substitute the value of \( B \) from the second equation into the first equation:
\[
A = 0.75 \times (0.48 \times C)
\]

Simplify the expression:
\[
A = 0.75 \times 0.48 \times C
\]
\[
A = 0.36 \times C
\]

This shows that \( A \) is 36% of \( C \).

### Answer
The percentage of the first number \( A \) with respect to the third number \( C \) is **36%**. So, the correct answer is:

**(1) 36**
