Question

The average of five numbers is 18. let the first number be increased by 1, the second number by 2, the third number by 3, the fourth number by 4, and the fifth number by 5. what is the average of the set of increased numbers?

Answer 1

It sounds like initially we have a total of 18*5 = 90. Then we are adding 5 + 4 +3 +2 +1 to this.
so that gives us 105.

105/5 = 21
