Given:

Weight of A = 40 kg

Weight of B = 54 kg

Weight of C = 62 kg

Formula used:

Average weight = \(\dfrac{\text{Sum of weights}}{\text{Number of persons}}\)

Calculations:

Sum of weights = 40 + 54 + 62

⇒ Sum of weights = 156 kg

Number of persons = 3

⇒ Average weight = \(\dfrac{156}{3}\)

⇒ Average weight = 52 kg

∴ The correct answer is option (2).
