Question

If the average of 12 consecutive odd integers is 328, what is the least of these integers?

Answer 1

x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8, x + 10, x + 12, x + 14, x + 16, x + 18, x + 20, x + 22 are the numbers.

Answer 2

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow 12x + 132 }\) will be the sum. Now divide this by 12.

Answer 3

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow x + 11 }\) is the average.

Answer 4

\( \color{Black}{\Rightarrow x + 11 = 328 }\)
