SSC CGL 2017 (Tier 1) Previous Year Paper (16-Aug-2017) (Shift 1)
The correct answer is

0

For any integer n, the unit digit of \(n^5\) equals the unit digit of n (cyclicity check for digits 0–9).

So the unit digit of the sum equals the unit digit of \(1+2+\cdots+20=\tfrac{20\times 21}{2}=210\).

Unit digit of 210 is 0.
