Examples - Measurements in cooking; Metric measurements (7 1/4”); Distance (9 1/2 miles)
Real-World Problem - You’re baking and need to triple a recipe. The recipe calls for 3 3/4 cups flour (per recipe). You’d need to triple that amount to make how much you’re looking to make. (3 x 3 3/4 = 11 1/4 cups flour)
Answer:
B. 70
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the sum given by 
Now, we open the summation by substituting the values of 'i',
i.e. = (1+11) + (2+11) + (3+11) +(4+11) +(5+11)
i.e. = 12 + 13 + 14 + 15 + 16
i.e. = 70.
Hence, the sum of is 70.
So, option B is correct.

Whole package weighs 20pounds
1.65 = 5pounds
0.12 = extra pound
3.45 - 1.65 = 1.80 : 0.12 = 15pounds
Adding up 15pounds and the first 5 pounds equal 20 pounds
A simple way to solve for consecutive numbers is to divide the sum number by the number of numbers needed. So 310 ÷ 5, which equals 62. That is the middle consecutive number.
To find the other 4 numbers, since they are all even, sinply add 2 to the middle number to find one, add 2 to that to find another, subtract 2 from the middle number to fine the third, and subtract 2 from that to find the final one.
62 + 2 = 64
64 + 2 = 66
62 - 2 = 60
60 - 2 = 58
so your numbers are 58, 60, 62, 52, and 66. Together they add up to 310.
(I may have done this a non-standard way, bit it was the way that made the most sense in my head.)
