Question

Average of 5 consecutive odd numbers is 57 so find the sum of next 5 consecutive odd number

Answer 1

x= the 1st odd

x+2 = the 2nd

x+4 = the 3rd

x+6 = the 4th

x+8 = the 5th

all are odd consecutive

...sum of the 5 numbers 5*57=285

x+x+2+x+4+x+6+x+8=285

5x+20=285

5x=285-20

x=53

the 5 numbers 53 55 57 59 61

the next 5 consecutive odd numbers: 63 65 67 69 71
