Detailed Solution

In the first part we have,
1+3+5+7+9
These are first consecutive odd terms. Now we know that the sum of first n consecutive n terms =
=n2
So, the sum of these 5 first consecutive odd terms,
=52
=25
Now, in the second part we have,
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19
So, the sum of these 10 first consecutive odd terms,
=102
=100
In the third part we have,
1+3+5+7+9+11+13+15+17+19+21+23
So, the sum of these 12 first consecutive odd terms,
=122
=144
So, the required sum is 25, 100 and 144.
Option 1 is correct.
