Question

the sum of 5 consecutive numbers is 140 find the number
​

Answer 1

let the no are x , x+1 , x+2 ,x+3, x+4

according to the question

x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 + x+4 = 140

5x +10 = 140

5x = 130

x= 130/5 = 26

hence the no are = 26 , 27 , 28, 29 , 30

Answer 2

Answer:

the 5 no.s are 26,27,28,29,30

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be the first number,

then given that,

x+(x+1)+(x+2)+(x+3)+(x+4) = 140

=> 5x+10 = 140

=> 5x = 140-10 = 130

=> x = 130/5 = 26

=> the 5 no.s are 26,27,28,29,30
