Question

If the sum of 5 consecutive numbers is 95 what is the third number

Answer 1

Let the first number be x
second number be X + 1
third number be X + 2
Fourth number be X + 3
fifth number be X + 4
A/Q
X + X + 1 + X + 2 + X + 3 + X + 4 =95
5x+10=95
5x=95-10
5x=85
X=85/5
=17
therefore third number is equal to 17+2 =19
