We assume that the zero level of potential energy is on the first floor. When the body is on the level of second floor, it moved up a height h = 5m. Using the formula for potential energy U = mgh and putting numeric values of all quantities, we will get
U = 15 kg·10 m/s2·5 m = 750 J = 7.5x102 J
I am afraid that somebody made a typos mistake in option (D).
