  • d) (a+4)br /since a, b, c, d and e are consecutive odd numbers;br /let b=a+2;br / c=(a+4);br /d=(a+6);br /e=(a+8);br /let the average be=xbr /x=(a+b+c+d+e)/5;br /now by substituting values of b , c, d. e we getbr /x=(5*a+20)/5;br /x=5(a+4)/5br /x=(a+4);br / 


  • The answer is D)a+4br /Given:br /     a,b,c,d,e are consecutive odd numbers br /which means br / b=a+2br /c=a+4br /d=a+6br /e=a+8br /Now their average avg=(a+b+c+d+e)/5;br /       avg=(a+a+2+a+4+a+6+a+8)/5;br /       avg=(5a+20)/5br /      avg=5(a+4)/5;br /     avg=a+4;
