Given:

series = 7, 11, 15, 19, 23, …

Formula Used:

Sn = n / 2 × {2a + (n - 1) × d}; where n= number of terms, d = common difference, a = first term, Sn = sum of n terms; d = (a2 - a1); a2 = second term of A.P., a1 = first term of an A.P

Calculation:

Using the above formulae, we get d = 4

⇒ S25 = 25 / 2 × {2 × 7 + (25 - 1) × 4}

⇒ S25 = 55 × 25

⇒ S25 = 1375

Required sum of 25 terms = 1375

Therefore the correct answer is 1375.
