Answer» LET the 7 consecutive number be (x - 3), (x - 2), (x - 1), (x), (x + 1), (x + 2), (x + 3) The sum of above consecutive number = 7x ⇒ Average of numbers = The sum of above consecutive number/7 = A ⇒ x = A After adding 2 numbers which are before these 7 numbers, we get The numbers are (x - 5), (x - 4), (x - 3), (x - 2), (x - 1), (x), (x + 1), (x + 2), (x + 3) ⇒ Sum = 9X - 9 Average = 9(x - 1)/9 = x - 1 = A - 1 |
