    Question

    The average of 5 consecutive numbers is 19. Find the largest of these numbers.

    A.

    23

    B.

    29

    C.

    21

    D.

    17

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Average of 5 consecutive numbers = 19
    Solution:
    Average=(x2)+(x1)+x+(x+1)+(x+2)5\text{Average}=\frac{(x-2)+ (x-1)+ x +(x+1)+( x+2)}{5}​​

    19 = 5x5\frac{5x}{5}​​

    x = 19
     Largest number = x + 2 = 19 + 2 = 21
