Correct answer: B

Let the A.P. have first term aaa and common difference ddd.

Then the rthr^{\text{th}}rth term is Tr=a+(r−1)d.T_r=a+(r-1)d.Tr​=a+(r−1)d.

We are given:

  1. Tm=125T_m=\dfrac{1}{25}Tm​=251​
  2. T25=120T_{25}=\dfrac{1}{20}T25​=201​
  3. 20∑r=125Tr=1320\sum_{r=1}^{25} T_r=1320∑r=125​Tr​=13

We need to find 5m∑r=m2mTr.5m\sum_{r=m}^{2m} T_r.5m∑r=m2m​Tr​.


1. Use the sum of first 25 terms

Since 20∑r=125Tr=13,20\sum_{r=1}^{25} T_r=13,20∑r=125​Tr​=13, we get ∑r=125Tr=1320.\sum_{r=1}^{25} T_r=\frac{13}{20}.∑r=125​Tr​=2013​.

Now, S25=252[2a+24d]=25(a+12d).S_{25}=\frac{25}{2}\left[2a+24d\right]=25(a+12d).S25​=225​[2a+24d]=25(a+12d). So, 25(a+12d)=132025(a+12d)=\frac{13}{20}25(a+12d)=2013​ a+12d=13500.(1)a+12d=\frac{13}{500}. \qquad (1)a+12d=50013​.(1)


2. Use T25=120T_{25}=\dfrac{1}{20}T25​=201​

T25=a+24d=120.(2)T_{25}=a+24d=\frac{1}{20}. \qquad (2)T25​=a+24d=201​.(2)

Subtract (1) from (2): (a+24d)−(a+12d)=120−13500(a+24d)-(a+12d)=\frac{1}{20}-\frac{13}{500}(a+24d)−(a+12d)=201​−50013​ 12d=25−13500=1250012d=\frac{25-13}{500}=\frac{12}{500}12d=50025−13​=50012​ d=1500.d=\frac{1}{500}. d=5001​.

Substitute into (1): a+12⋅1500=13500a+12\cdot \frac{1}{500}=\frac{13}{500}a+12⋅5001​=50013​ a=1500.a=\frac{1}{500}. a=5001​.

Hence, Tr=a+(r−1)d=1500+r−1500=r500.T_r=a+(r-1)d=\frac{1}{500}+\frac{r-1}{500}=\frac{r}{500}. Tr​=a+(r−1)d=5001​+500r−1​=500r​.


3. Use Tm=125T_m=\dfrac{1}{25}Tm​=251​

Since Tm=m500=125,T_m=\frac{m}{500}=\frac{1}{25},Tm​=500m​=251​, we get m=20.m=20.m=20.


4. Compute ∑r=m2mTr\sum_{r=m}^{2m} T_r∑r=m2m​Tr​

Here m=20m=20m=20, so we need \sum_{r=20}^{40} T_r=\sum_{r=20}^{40} \frac{r}{500}= rac{1}{500}\sum_{r=20}^{40} r.

Now, \sum_{r=20}^{40} r=\frac{(20+40)(40-20+1)}{2}= rac{60\cdot 21}{2}=630.

Therefore, ∑r=2040Tr=630500=6350.\sum_{r=20}^{40} T_r=\frac{630}{500}=\frac{63}{50}. ∑r=2040​Tr​=500630​=5063​.


5. Find the required value

5m∑r=m2mTr=5⋅20⋅6350.5m\sum_{r=m}^{2m} T_r=5\cdot 20\cdot \frac{63}{50}.5m∑r=m2m​Tr​=5⋅20⋅5063​.

Since 5⋅20=1005\cdot 20=1005⋅20=100, 100⋅6350=2⋅63=126.100\cdot \frac{63}{50}=2\cdot 63=126.100⋅5063​=2⋅63=126.


6. Check options

The value is 126.\boxed{126}.126​.

So the correct option is B.
