    A) 33                               

    B) 31                   

    C)        32                   

    D)         30                  

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Series after the insertion of terms between 4 and 39 is 4, \[{{a}_{1}},{{a}_{2}},{{a}_{3}},{{a}_{4}},39\] Now, \[39=4+5d\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[35=5d\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[d=7\] \[\therefore \] \[{{a}_{4}}=4+4\times 7=32\]
