D Correct answer
Explanation

Savings are:

$200,200,200,240,280,.......\text{up to n terms}$

But $200,240,280,......(n-2)$ terms forms an A.P

Since, sum of n terms of an AP $=S _n=\dfrac n2[2a+(n-1)d]$, where first term is $a$ and common difference $d$

$\therefore $ According to question

$400+\dfrac {n-2}{2}[2(200)+(n-2-1)40]=11040$  ...... Sum $=11040$

$\Rightarrow 400+(n-2)[200+(n-3)20]=11040$

$\Rightarrow (n-2)[200+20n-60]=10640$

$\Rightarrow (n-2)(20n+140)=10640$

$\Rightarrow 20(n+7)(n-2)=10640$

$\Rightarrow n^2+5n-14=532$

$\Rightarrow n^2+5n-546=0$

$\Rightarrow (n+26)(n-21)=0$

$\Rightarrow n=21$

So, total time $=21$ months.
