[Q]: Question: The speeds of three asteroids were compared. Asteroids X-13 and Y-14 were observed for identical durations, while asteroid Z-15 was observed for 2 seconds longer. During its period of observation, asteroid Y-14 traveled three times the distance X-13 traveled, and therefore Y-14 was found to be faster than X-13 by 2500 kilometers per second. Asteroid Z-15 had an identical speed as that of X-13, but because Z-15 was observed for a longer period, it traveled five times the distance X-13 traveled during X-13's inspection. Asteroid X-13 traveled how many kilometers during its observation?

 Option A: 500

 Option B: 625

 Option C: 1,000

 Option D: 1,500

 Option E: 2,500
