Correct option is (D) 14, 16, 18
Let three consecutive even numbers are x - 2, x & x+2.
\(\therefore\) Their mean \(=\frac{(x-2)+x+(x+2)}3\)
\(=\frac{3x}3\) = x
But given that mean of three consecutive even numbers is 16.
\(\therefore\) x = 16
Thus,...
Correct option is (D) 35/38
Let the second number be x.
\(\therefore\) x + \((\frac{-8}{19})\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\Rightarrow\) x = \(\frac{1}{2}\) - \((\frac{-8}{19})\) = \(\frac{1}{2}\) + \(\frac{8}{19}\) \(=\frac{19+8\times2}{38}\) \(=\frac{19+16}{38}\) \(=\frac{35}{38}.\)
