Answer 2

Given : First 8 consecutive odd numbers.

To find : The average of the given numbers.

Solution :

We can simply solve this mathematical problem by using the following mathematical process. (our goal is to calculate the average of the given numbers)

First of all, we have to determine the first 8 consecutive odd numbers.

• First 8 consecutive odd numbers = 1 , 3 , 5, 7 , 9 , 11 , 13 , 15

(odd numbers : the numbers which are not divisible by 2)

Sum of first 8 consecutive odd numbers :

= 1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15

= 64

So, the average of first 8 consecutive odd numbers :

= Sum ÷ Number of terms

= Sum of first 8 consecutive odd numbers ÷ 8

= 64 ÷ 8

= 8

(This will be considered as the final result.)

Hence, the average of first 8 consecutive odd numbers is 8
