Let the smallest number equal n. Therefore, the other numbers are (n+2) and (n+4).

The sum of the three numbers are:

n + (n+2) + (n+4)

=3n+6

Since the sum equals 78, 

3n+6=78

Divide both sides by 3, 

n+2=26

n=24

Therefore, the smallest number is 24.

matrenka [14]

To solve this question, you just need to count all the probability of the options.

The probability that a pitch not over the plate is a strike is zero. So, P(A | D) = 0.

True. It is 0/0+20= 0

The probability that a pitch not over the plate is a ball is 1. So, P(B | D) = 1.

True, it is 20/20+0= 1

The probability that a pitch over the plate is a strike is 10:15. So, ...

Incomplete but it sounds to be true. It should be 10/10+5= 10/15 = 2/3

The probability that a pitch over the plate is a ball is 5:10. So, P(B | C) = 0.5.
