Calculation:

Percentage of population of city C3 = 8%

Percentage of population of city C5 = 5%

Percentage of population of city C7 = 3%

Average of percentage of population of cities C3, C5 and C7 = (8 + 5 + 3)/3

⇒ 16/3 %

Average population = \(\frac{16}{3\times100} \times 30000\)

⇒ 1600

∴ Option 3 is the correct answer.
