Answer: D) 9, 15, 21, 27, ...

Explanation:

Notice that the difference (d) for each option is 6.

Divide 2019 by 6 to see what the REMAINDER is (this is the first term).

2019 ÷ 6 = 336 r.3

None of the options start with 3 so the next option would be 3 + 6 = 9.

The only option that starts with 9 is option D.
