Note: all the option has 5 as their denominator.

Given ,

t is the sum of 5 consecutive integers.

Among the answer choice , option E has the greatest numerator but the same denominator.

So option E gives us the greatest value.

sum of 1st five int =5*6/2=15=t
t5=(t+10)/5 satisfies

taking another set of consecutive int - just to confim
t1=10,t5=14
t in this case = 5/2(2*10+(4))
t=5/2*24=60
t5=(t+10)/5 =14
therefore D
