B
$4000$
C
$4050$
D
$5000$
Solution
Monthly income of $P$ and $Q=2 \times 5050=10100$ ….$(1)$
Monthly income of $Q$ and $R=2 \times 6250=12500$ ….$(2)$
Monthly income of $P$ and $R=2 \times 5200=10400$ ….$(3)$
$\frac{(1)+(2)+(3)}{2}-(2) \Rightarrow$
Monthly income of $P=\frac{10100+12500+10400}{2}-12500$
$=5050+6250+5200-12500$
$=16500-12500=Rs.\, 4000$
