Odd Number Question
Q.1 What is the average of first 9 odd number?
A.5
B.7
C.9
D.3
Solution:- According to the question,
The numbers which are not divisible by 2 are called odd number.
Hence first 7 are odd number.
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17
Average of numbers = (sum of given numbers)/(number of given number)
Average of first 9 odd numbers = (1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17)/9
Average of first 9 odd numbers = 81/9
Average of first 9 odd numbers = 9
Q.2 The sum of the first 20 odd number is?
A.381
B.400
C.425
D.625
Solution :- According to the question,
First 20 are odd number.
1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37, 39
The sum of first 20 odd number = (1 + 3 + 5 + 7 + 9 + 11 + 13 + 15 + 17 + 19 + 21 + 23 + 25 + 27 + 29 + 31 + 33 + 35 + 37 + 39)
Sum of first 20 odd numbers = 400
Q.3 What is the sum of first 40 odd number?
A.1200
B.1600
C.2000
D.2400
Solution:- According to the question,
sum of first 40 odd number
1, 3, 5, 9, ……………………… 77, 79
a = 1,
d = 3 – 1
d = 2
n = 80
Sum ⇒ Sn = n/2 [2a + (n – 2)d]
Sn = 40/2 [2×1 + (40 – 1) × 2]
Sn = 20 (2 + 39 × 2)
Sn = 20 (2 + 78)
Sn = 20 × 80
Sn = 1600
Q.4 The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 153. is the smallest number among them.
A.49
B.47
C.43
D.41
Suppose that
Three consecutive odd numbers are x, x+2, and x+4 respectively.
According to Question,
x + x+2 + x+4 = 153
3x + 6 = 153
3x = 153 – 6
3x = 147
x = 147/3
x = 49
Q.5 The sum of 6 consecutive odd numbers is 38 more than twice the largest number. Find the sum of these six number?
A.42
B.50
C.72
D.60
Let the 6 consecutive odd number be x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6, x + 8, and x + 10 respectively.
x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 + x + 10 – 2(x + 10) = 38
4x + 10 = 38
4x = 38 – 10
4x = 28
x = 7
Required sum = 6x + 30
Required sum = 6 × 7 + 30
Required sum = 42 + 30
Required total = 72
