Answer 1

Answer:

128 is the smallest number

Explanation:

Let the first consecutive number be x. Therefore, the next four 4 even positive is

x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8

Now according to question,

x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 660

= 5x + 20 = 660

= 5x = 660 - 20

= 5x = 640

= x = 128

Hence the smallest number is 128
