The correct answer is A) KG 25.0 feet.
To determine the final KG of the cargo after loading, we need to use the information provided and the Stability Data Reference Book. Given that there is already 4145 tons of cargo on board with a KG of 25.5 feet, and the new cargo is listed in table ST-0031, we can calculate the final KG by using the formula for the weighted average of the KGs.
