-  The sum of 5 consecutive numbers is equal to 170. what is the product of largest and smallest numbers ?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let smallest number = x. 
 Then, x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 170Correct Option: CLet smallest number = x. 
 Then, x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 170
 ⇒ 5x + 10 = 170
 ⇒ x = 160 / 5
 ⇒ x = 32
 ∴ product of smallest and largest number = 32 x 36
 = 1152
-  Which of the following number always divides the difference between the square of two consecutive odd numbers ?
- 
                        View Hint View Answer Discuss in Forum Let the two consecutive odd numbers be 2x+1 and 2x + 3 . Correct Option: CLet the two consecutive odd numbers be 2x+1 and 2x + 3 . 
 ∴ Difference = ( 2x + 3 )2 - ( 2x + 1 )2
 = ( 2x + 3 + 2x + 1 )( 2x + 3 - 2x - 1 )
 =( 4x + 4 ) x 2
 = 8 (x + 1)
 whis is exactly divisible by 8.
