Answer
Correct option: C.
Arithmetic Progression
Progressions with an equal common difference are known as Arithmetic Progression.
i.e the difference between any two consecutive terms is constant throughout the series,
this constant difference is called common difference usually denoted by the letter $d$
if a is the $1^{st}$ term, $d$ is a common difference,
then the $AP$ is represented by $a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d ... a + (n - 1)d$
