    Explanation:

    Correct option:4

    Solution:

    Vehicles on highway B on Friday=10000
    Total vehicles on Saturday=75000 Total vehicles on Sunday=75000*4/5=60000
    Total vehicles on Sunday=60000
    According to the questions, 10000*100/60000=16.66%= 17% approx.

    Detailed explanation:
    Saturday, The number of vehicles on highway B is 15000 less than that of highway A & C together.
    Let A&C together=x
    Then highway B=x-15000
    x+x-15000=75000
    x=45000
    So on highway B=75000-45000=30000
    A&C=45000
    Friday, The number of vehicles on highway B is one third of the highway B of Saturday.
    So on highway B=30000/3=10000
    Sunday, The number of vehicle of highway A is equal to highway B of Saturday.
    So highway A=30000
    Saturday, The number of vehicles on highway A is 5/6th of highway A of Sunday.
    So highway A=30000*5/6=25000
    We know that highway A +C=45000
    So highway C=45000-25000=20000
    Sunday, The number of vehicles on highway C is same on Saturday and Sunday.
    So highway C=20000 T
    Total Sunday=60000
    Then highway B=60000-(30000+20000)10000
    Friday, The number of vehicles on highway C is 3/4th of highway C of Saturday.
    So highway C=20000*3/4=15000
    The number of vehicle on highway A and C is same.
    So highway A=15000
