      E 1490 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Sum of all 's' numbers = 25s
      ATQ:
      (25s + 100) / (s + 1) = 25.2
      Multiplying both sides by (s + 1):
      25s + 100 = 25.2(s + 1)
      25s + 100 = 25.2s + 25.2
      100 - 25.2 = 25.2s - 25s
      74.8 = 0.2s
      s = 374
      4 X (s - 9):
      4 X (374 - 9) = 4 X 365 = 1460
