Ira, b, c, d, e are five consecutive odd numbers, their average is:
Answers
Answer:
a,b,c,d,e are five consecutive odd number
b=a+2
c=a+4
d=a+6
e=a+8
Avg =
5
a+b+c+d+e
=
5
a+a+2+a+4+a+6+a+8
=
5
5a+20
Avg =a+4
Hence, option 'D' is correct
Answer:
Answer: 14 is the median.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x=the first even number
Let x+2=the second consecutive even number
Let x+4=the third consecutive even number
Let x+6=the fourth consecutive even number
Let x+8=the fifth consecutive even number
x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8)=70 [Given]
5x+20=70 [Addition]
5x=50 [Subtract 20 from both sides]
x=10 [divide both sides by 5]
x+2=12 [Addition]
x+4=14 [Addition]
x+6=16 [Addition]
x+8=18 [Addition]
Check:
x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8)=70 [Given]
10+12+14+16+18?=70 [Substitution]
70=70 [Addition]
To find the median:
Arrange the numbers from smallest to largest.
Since there are an odd number of numbers, the median is the number in the middle.
10+12+14+16+18
Answer: 14 is the median.
