Q:

The average of 26,29,n,35 and 43 lies between 25 and 35. If n is always an integer and greater than the average  of the given integers then the value of n is :

A) 33 B) 34
C) 33 D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 33
Explanation:

Average of 26,29,35 and 43 is 33.25 . Also the average of 26 , 29, n, 35 and 43 lies between 25 and 35 i.e,

 25<26+29+n+35+435<35 

=> 125 < 26+29+n+35+43 < 175 

=> 125 < 133 + n < 175

=> n < 42

 Since the value of n is an integer and greater than 33.25 then 33 < n < 42 for every integer n.
