    C 120 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 130 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 140 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Sum of all 's' numbers of the set = 18 X s = '18s' ATQ; (18s + 30)/(s + 1) = 18.3 Or, 18s + 30 = 18.3s + 18.3 Or, 30 - 18.3 = 18.3s - 18s Or, 11.7 = 0.3s So, s = 39 So, required value = 5 X (39 - 15) = 120
