Let smallest number = x.
Then, x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 170Correct Option: C
Let smallest number = x.
Then, x + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 + x + 4 = 170
⇒ 5x + 10 = 170
⇒ x = 160 / 5
⇒ x = 32
∴ product of smallest and largest number = 32 x 36
= 1152

Let the two consecutive odd numbers be 2x+1 and 2x + 3 .
Correct Option: C
Let the two consecutive odd numbers be 2x+1 and 2x + 3 .
∴ Difference = ( 2x + 3 )2 - ( 2x + 1 )2
= ( 2x + 3 + 2x + 1 )( 2x + 3 - 2x - 1 )
=( 4x + 4 ) x 2
= 8 (x + 1)
whis is exactly divisible by 8.
