If a, b, c, d, e are five consecutive odd numbers, their average is

1. 5(a + 4)
2. abcde/5
3. 5(a + b + c + d + e)
4. a + 4

Correct Option: D

Let b = a + 2
c = b + 2 = a + 4
d = c + 2 = a + 6
e = d + 2 = a + 8

∴ Required average =	a + a + 2 + a + 4 + a + 6 + a + 8
	5

Required average =	5a + 10	= a + 4
	5
