(C) Let the first term of the $A.P.$ be $a$ and the common difference be $d$.The $n^{th}$ term of an $A.P.$ is given by $a_n = a + (n-1)d$.$11^{th}$ term: $a_{11} = a + 10d$.$21^{st}$ term: $a_{21} = a + 20d$.According to the problem,$2 	imes a_{11} = 7 	imes a_{21}$.$2(a + 10d) = 7(a + 20d)$$2a + 20d = 7a + 140d$$5a + 120d = 0$Dividing by $5$,we get $a + 24d = 0$.The $25^{th}$ term is $a_{25} = a + 24d$.Since $a + 24d = 0$,the $25^{th}$ term is $0$.

If twice the $11^{th}$ term of an $A.P.$ is equal to $7$ times its $21^{st}$ term,then its $25^{th}$ term is equal to
