A, B, C, D, E are five consecutive odd numbers. The sum of A and C is 30. What is the value of E?

A 21

B 23

C 25

D 27

Answer & Explanation
Option: [D]

Let the five consecutive odd numbers be (x-4), (x-2), x, (x+2), (x+4) respectively.

Now, (x-4) + x = 30

x = 17

Therefore the value of E is (17+4) = 21
