A, B, C, D and E are five consecutive odd numbers The sum of A and C is 146. What is the value of E?

Let x be the smaller of the two consecutive odd positive integers. Then, the other integer is x + 2. Since both the integers are smaller than 10, x + 2 <...

(b) According to the question, x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 228 4x + 12 = 228 4x = 228 – 12 = 216 x =...

(b) A + A + 2 + A + 4 + A + 6 = 180 4A + 12 = 180 A = 42. Next four consecutive even numbers are 50 + 52 +...

(a) Out of the given alternatives, 137 × 139 = 19043 Required smaller number = 137

 (a) According to the question,  x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 140  or, 5x + 20 = 140  or, 5x =...

(a) From the given alternatives, 1763 = 43 × 41

(d) Lowest number of set A = 280/5 – 4 = 52  Lowest number of other set = 52 × 2 – 71 = 33   Required sum = 33 + 34...

(a) Assume the third number = x According to question 2 × 280 + x + 178.5 × 2 = 281 × 5 or, 560 + x + 357 = 1405 or, x +...

Difference between two consecutive odd numbers is 2. ∴ If smallest odd number be x. Then next consecutive odd numbers are x+2,x+4,x+6 and x+8.

(e) Third number = 290 – (48.5 × 2) – (53.5 × 2) = 290 – 97 – 107= 86
