    Question



    The average of 5 Consecutive numbers A, B, C, D and E is 12. What is the product of A and D

    A.

    140

    B.

    120

    C.

    110

    D.

    130

    Correct option is D


    Given:
    Average of five consecutive numbers is 12
    Formula Used:
    Average = Sum of observations /Number of observations
    Solution:

    Let the consecutive numbers A,B,C,Dand E be x ,x+1,x+2,x+3,x+4 respectively
    Then total sum of numbers = x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4= 5x +10
    Average of numbers = 12
    Total of numbers = 5 ×12 = 60
    So,
    5x+10 =60
    5x=50
    x=10
    A =x =10
    D =x +3 = 13
    Product of A and D is 10 × 13 = 130
