  • Question
  • The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 93. What is the middle number?


  • Options
  • A. 31
  • B. 33
  • C. 29
  • D. 27

  • Correct Answer
  • 31 

    Explanation

    Let the three consecutive odd numbers be x, x+2, x+4

    Then,

    x + x + 2 + x + 4 = 93

    => 3x + 6 = 93

    => 3x = 87

    => x = 29 => 29, 31, 33 are three consecutive odd numbers.

     

    Therefore, the middle number is 31.
