Answer»

Let, 11 CONSECUTIVE numbers are,

⇒ (X - 5), (x - 4), (x - 3), (x - 2), (x - 1), x, (x + 1), (x + 2), (x + 3), (x + 4), (x + 5)

ACCORDING to problem,

⇒ (x - 5) + (x - 4) + (x - 3) + (x - 2) + (x - 1) + x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) + (x + 3) + (x + 4) + (x + 5) = 11

⇒ 11x = 11

⇒ x = 1

∴ The lowest NUMBER = 1 - 5 = -4
