From the given series, which are in Arithmetic Progression?

A. 7, 14, 21, 28, …

B. 9, 17, 28, 40, ...

C. 3, 8, 13, 18, …

D. 1, –1, –3, -5, …

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Solution

✅ Correct Option: 1

An AP needs a constant common difference. A has d=7d = 7, C has d=5d = 5 and D has d=−2d = -2, all constant.

B gives differences of 8, 11 and 12, which are not constant, so B is not an AP.

Hence A, C and D only.
