Adult ticket price = 1000

Child ticket price = 500 
With every 2 adult 1 child is free
So for 17 adults 5 children ticket is discount or free
17 adult price = 17*1000 = 17000
5 children price = 5*500= 2500
Total ticket price = 19500
Discount price of children ticket =2500
Price paid after discount = 17000
Percentage of discount = 2500/19500*100 = 12.82%
So option 3 is correct
