Option 3 : Both are correct

The correct answer is 3 i.e. Both are correct.

Explanation:

This compound contains 4 carbon atom which is indicated by writing 'but'.
This compound has all single bonds, so it is saturated.
The saturated hydrocarbon is indicated by the ending 'ane'.
On joining 'but' and 'ane', the IUPAC name of its compound becomes 'butane'.
The above structure has 4 carbon atoms in one continuous chain.
Such straight chain compounds are termed 'normal' in the common names.
The common name of C₄H₁₀ hydrocarbon is also 'normal butane' which is also be written as 'n-butane'.
Thus, the IUPAC name as well as the common name of the hydrocarbon C₄H₁₀ is the same, butane.
