Solution

The fee charged every month by a school from Classes I =250
The fee charged every month by a school from Classes II =250+50=250+1×50=300
The fee charged every month by a school from Classes III =250+50+50=250+2×50=350
.

.
The fee charged every month by a school from Classes XII =250+11×50=800
Therefore list of numbers formed from fee charged is
250,300,350,...,800
Clearly it is an AP, because next term is obtained from preceding term by adding a constant 50.
