Answer:

7:51 a.m.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the clock slows down by 3 minutes a day, on Monday it will be 7:57 a.m.(3 minutes before 8:00 a.m.)

On Tuesday it will be 3 more minutes slower than the previous day means that it will be 3 minutes slower than on Monday, & 6 minutes slower than on Sunday, which means it shows 7:54 a.m.

On Wednesday it will be 3 more minutes slower than on Tuesday, 6 minutes slower than on Monday, & 9 minutes slower than on Sunday, which means it shows 7:51 a.m.
