Question

The sum of 4 consecutive odd integers is 336, how do you find the largest integer?

Answer 1

Answer:-

87

Solution:-

Let the smallest odd integer be x.

Then, the next three odd integers are:

(x+2),(x+4) and (x+6).

According to the question,

x+(x+2)+(x+4)+ (x+6)=336

4x+12=336

4x=336-12=324

x=324/4=81.

Thus the nos. are:

x=81

x+2=83

x+4=85

x+6=87.

So, the greatest among all is 87.
