Question

The sum of the average of three consecutive odd numbers and three consecutive even numbers is 25. if the highest even number is 12, what is the lowest odd number

Answer 1

We know that the highest even number is 12.

The three consecutive even numbers are 8, 10, 12.

Their average = 10

Let the average of 3 consecutive odd numbers be 'a'

a + 10 = 25

a = 15

The required odd numbers are 13, 15, 17

So, the lowest odd number is 15.
