Q10. The sum of the four consecutive alternate numbers is 64. The smallest number amongst them is Q10. The sum of the four consecutive alternate numbers is 64. The smallest number amongst them is
(A) 13 (A) 13
(B) 11 (B) 11
(C) 16 (C) 16
(D) 9 (D) 9
Answer: (A) 13 Answer: (A) 13
The smallest number amongst them is 13
=> X + (X+2) + (X+4) + (X+6) = 64
=> 4X + 12 = 64
=> 4X = 64 - 12
=> 4X = 52
=> X = 13The smallest number amongst them is 13
=> X + (X+2) + (X+4) + (X+6) = 64
=> 4X + 12 = 64
=> 4X = 64 - 12
=> 4X = 52
=> X = 13
