      Question

      The average number of stickers distributed among five

      girls is 13. If each girl received 1 sticker more than the girl before, then find the highest number of stickers received by any girl.
      A 14 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 15 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 13 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 12 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the stickers received by 1st girl be ‘x’
      According to the question,
      (x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4) = 13 × 5
      Or, 5x + 10 = 65
      Or, 5x = 55
      Or, x = 11
      Therefore, highest number of stickers received by any girl = (x + 4) = 15
