Question

In an increasing list of consecutive integers, the 3rd and the 4th numbers in the list add to 11. What is the 10th number in the list?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let one number be “x” then the other numbers are x+1, x+2 and x+3.

So the first integer is 27 , the second integer is 27+1=28 , the third integer is 27+2=29 and the fourth integer is 27+3=30 .

Hence, the four consecutive integers whose sum is 114 are 27, 28, 29 and 30.
