    B 620 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 487 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 785 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,

    Sum of forty numbers = (40 × 45) = 1800

    Sum of the first twenty-two numbers = (22 × 50) = 1100

    Sum of the last twenty-two numbers = (22 × 60) = 1320

    So, twenty-second term = 1100 + 1320 - 1800 = 620
