Answer:

Consecutive numbers are x , (x+1),(x+2),(x+3),(x+4)

= x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 5x + 10

5x + 10 = 80

5x = 80 - 10

x = 70 / 5 = 14

x + 1 = 14 + 1 = 15

∴ Numbers are 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18

The five consecutive numbers are 14,15,16,17 and 18.

Given :

The sum of five consecutive numbers = 80

To find :

The numbers

Solution :

Let the first number be x

Hence, the second number = x + 1

The third number = x + 2

The fourth number = x + 3

The fifth number = x + 4

According to the problem,

=> x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 80

=> 5x + 10 = 80

=> 5x = 80-10

=> 5x = 70

=> x = 70/5 = 14

Hence, the first number = 14

The second number = 14 + 1 = 15

The third number = 14 + 2 = 16

The fourth number = 14 + 3 = 17

The fifth number = 14 + 4 = 18

Hence, the five consecutive numbers are 14,15,16,17 and 18.
