Solution

The correct option is D Same as that of the previous A.P.
When each term of the arithmetic progression is added with a fixed number, the resulting sequence formed is also an arithmetic progression and the common difference of such a progression is same as that of the previous A.P. Thus the correct answer is ' $c$ '.
