The sum of 5 consecutive even numbers is 100. What is the first number in this sequence?

Mathematics
1 answer:
gayaneshka [121]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent this with an equation, where x is the first number. The next number must be x+2, because it has to be even, not x+1, and the rest continue the same way:

x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)+(x+8) = 100

Solve for x.

5x+20 = 100

5x = 80

<u>x = 16</u>
