    Average

    If a, b, c, d, e are five alternate odd numbers, their average is:

    ক)
    5 (a + 4)
    খ)
    abcde/5
    গ)
    5 (a + b + c + d + e)
    ঘ)
    (a + 8)
    ঙ)
    None of these

    Explanation

    ∵ a, b, c, d and e are alternate odd numbers, assuming a to be the least one of them, b = a + 2 + 2 = a + 4, c = a + 8, d = a + 12, e = a + 16 We know that, average = Sum of all quantities/Number of quantities ∴ Average = (a + a + 4 + a + 8 + a + 12 + a + 16) = 5a + 40 ⇒ Average = (5a + 40)/5 = a + 8
