Answer:
14
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.
