\mathrm{SO_3 + H_2O \rightarrow H_2SO_4}

% of free SO3 in Oleum = 20 %

\therefore Weight of SO3 in the 100g Oleum sample = 20 g

\therefore Moles of SO3 present = 20/80 = 0.25

\therefore Moles of H2O added = 0.25 X 18

\therefore Weight of H2O added = 4.5 g

\therefore  % labelling of Oleum= (100+ 4.5) = 104.5 %

Thus, the correct option is (1)
