If the sum of five consecutive positive integer is A , then the sum of next five consecutive integer in sum of A is ?
Answers
Answer:
The sum of 5 consecutive positive integers = A. Think of it this way, each of the next 5 consecutive positive integers is 5 more than the corresponding first five integers. SInce there are 5 integers, 5x5 would make the sum 25 greater than A. Thus, answer choice C A+25 is correct.
The sum of next five consecutive integer in sum of A is A + 25
Given :
The sum of five consecutive positive integer is A
To find :
The sum of next five consecutive integer in sum of A
Solution :
Step 1 of 2 :
Find relationship between five consecutive positive integers and A
Let five consecutive positive integers are x , x + 1 , x + 2 , x + 3 , x + 4
Since sum of five consecutive positive integer is A
∴ x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) = A
⇒ 5x + 10 = A
Step 2 of 2 :
Find the sum of next five consecutive integer in sum of A
Now next five consecutive integers are x + 5 , x + 6 , x + 7 , x + 8 , x + 9
Hence the sum of next five consecutive integers
= (x + 5) + (x + 6) + (x + 7) + (x + 8) + (x + 9)
= 5x + 35
= 5x + 10 + 25
= (5x + 10) + 25
= A + 25
