Question

Sum of 4 consecutive odd number is 80 find the number

Answer 1

let the number be x
x+x+1+x+2+x+3=80
bcoz they are consecutive
4x+6=80
4x=80-6=74
x=74/4=18.5



therefore,x=18.5
x+1=19.5
x+2=20.5
x+3=21.5



verification
18.5+19.5+20.5+21.5
38+20.5+21.5
58.5+21.5
=80

therefore consecutive terms are
18.5,19.5,20.5,21.5
