Answer 1

Answer:

The required smallest odd number is 9.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the average of four consecutive odd numbers is 12.

We are to find the smallest odd number.

Let the smallest odd number be represented by x.

Then, the other three consecutive odd number are x+2, x+4 and x+6.

According to the given information, we get

{x+x+2+x+4+x+6}{4}=12

x=9

x+x+2+x+4+x+6

⇒4x+12=4×12

⇒4x+12=48

⇒4x=48−12

⇒4x=36

⇒x=

4

36

⇒x=9.

Thus, the required smallest odd number is 9.
