      If the average of 7 back-to-back numbers is 65, find the

      sum of the first and last numbers.
      A 130 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 172 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 124 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 185 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      Assume the numbers are: (a - 3), (a - 2), (a - 1), a, (a + 1), (a + 2), (a + 3)

      Then, (a - 3 + a - 2 + a - 1 + a + a + 1 + a + 2 + a + 3) Γ· 7 = 65

      β‡’ (7a / 7) = 65

      β‡’ a = 65

      Sum of smallest and largest = (a - 3) + (a + 3) = 2a = 2 Γ— 65 = 130
