lets go by option verification

oxidation state of hydrogen=+1

oxidation state of oxygen=-2

oxidation state of phosphorous be x

1)H3PO2

so: 3(+1)+ x+2(-2)=0

3+x-4=0

x=+1

2) H3PO3

3(+1)+x+3(-2)=0

3+x-6=0

x=+3

3)H3PO4

3(+1)+x+4(-2)=0

3+x-8=0

x=+5

4)H4PO3

4(+1)+x+3(-2)=0

4+x-6=0

x=+2.

so the answer is 2.

hope the answer is helpful.
