Question : 11 [SSC Multi-Tasking Staff 2013]
What is the average of the first six (positive) odd numbers each of which is divisible by 7?
a) 49
b) 47
c) 43
d) 42
Answer »Answer: (d)
Required average
= ${7+21+35+49+63+77}/6$
= ${7(1+3+5+7+9+11)}/6$
= ${7×36}/6$ = 42
Question : 12 [SSC CGL Tier-I 2014]
If a, b, c, d, e are five consecutive odd numbers, their average is
a) a+4
b) 5(a+b+c +d+e)
c) ${abcde}/5$
d) 5(a+4)
Answer »Answer: (a)
b = a + 2
c = b + 2 = a + 4
d = c + 2 = a + 6
e = d + 2 = a + 8
∴ Required average
= ${a+a+2+a+4+a+6+a+8}/5$
= ${5a+20}/5$ = a+4
Question : 13 [SSC CGL Tier-II 2012]
The average of 5 consecutive integers starting with ‘m’ is n. What is the average of 6 consecutive integers starting with (m + 2) ?
a) ${2n+9}/2$
b) (n+3)
c) (n+2)
d) ${2n+5}/2$
Answer »Answer: (d)
m + m + 1 + m + 2 + m + 3 + m + 4 = 5n
⇒ 5m + 10 = 5n
⇒ m + 2 = n ....(i)
Required average = ${m+2+m+3+m+4+m+5+m+6+m+7}/6$
= ${6m+27}/6$
= ${2m+9}/2$ = ${2(n-2)+9}/2$= ${2n+5}/2$ By (i) [m = n – 2]
Question : 14 [SSC Constable 2012]
The average of 7 consecutive numbers is 20. The largest of these numbers is :
a) 20
b) 22
c) 23
d) 24
Answer »Answer: (c)
Average of 7 consecutive numbers is 20.
Since the numbers are consecutive, they form an arithmetic series with common difference 1.
Since, 7 is odd, 20 must be the middle number.
We can write the series as below,
17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23
∴ The largest of these numbers is 23.
Question : 15 [SSC CGL Tier-1 2011]
The average of three consecutive odd numbers is 12 more than one third of the first of these numbers. What is the last of the three numbers ?
a) Data inadequate
b) 19
c) 17
d) 15
Answer »Answer: (b)
If the smallest number be x, then
$x/3$+12 = x+2
⇒ x + 36 = 3x + 6
⇒ 3x – x = 36 – 6
⇒ 2x = 30 ⇒ x = 15
∴ Third number = 15 + 4 = 19
