A) 29 B) 27
C) 31 D) 33

According to the question,

Difference between square of the average of first two odd number and the of the average last

two odd numbers is 396

i.e, x+3 and x-3

x + 32 - x - 32 = 396 x2 + 9 + 6x - x2 + 6x - 9 = 396 12x = 396 x = 33

 

Hence, the smallest odd number is 33 - 4 = 29.
