Correct Option: 3

According to the question:

\frac{\text{Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday + Saturday}}{6}=4200

\text{Monday}=1200

\text{Sunday}=1500

\text{Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday + Saturday}=4200\times6=25200

\text{1200 + Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday + Saturday}=25200

\text{Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday + Saturday}=24000

Adding Sunday to this:

\text{Tuesday + Wednesday + Thursday + Friday + Saturday + Sunday}=24000+1500=25500

To find the average
