Question

The average of 5 consecutive even number is 50 . Find the smallest among them​

Answer 1

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

let smallest no be x .

given that sum of 5 consecutive nos is 50

so , x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) + (x+4)

= x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 50

= 5x + 10 = 50

= 5x = 50 - 10

= x = 40 / 5

= x = 8
