- D45
Correct answer
C. 35
Step-by-step solution
According to the question,
In 2010, the income of doctor was 10 thousands.
In 2011, the income of doctor was 12.5 thousands.
So, the increment was 2.5 thousands.
Similarly,
10 + 2.5 = 12.5 thousands
12.5 + 5 = 17.5 thousands
17.5 + 7.5 = 25 thousands
25 + 10 = 35 thousands
Hence, the correct answer is 35 thousands.
