Consider the 15th term of the following Arithmetic Progression (AP).

A. 2, 7, 12, ...

B. 10, 7, 4, ...

C. 3, 8, 13, ..., 253

D. 1, -1, -3, -5, ...

Arrange the 15th term of the above APs in ascending order.

Choose the correct answer from the options given below:

A, B, D, C

B, C, D, A

C, D, A, B

B, D, A, C

✅ Correct Option: 4

Using $a_{15} = a + 14d$ :

A: $2 + 14(5) = 72$ .

B: $10 + 14(-3) = -32$ .

C: $3 + 14(5) = 73$ .

D: $1 + 14(-2) = -27$ .

Ascending: $-32 < -27 < 72 < 73$ , that is B, D, A, C.
