target find avg of x consective terms ; (first term+ + last term)/2
#1
The 12th largest term in set S is 8 greater than 4th smallest terms and 3 less than the largest term of Set S
a+11=8+a+3
and a+11 = (a+n-1-3)
or say
11+a=a+n-4
n=15
but insufficient as we cannot find value of 'a'
#2
8th smallest term in set S is 14
a+7=14
a= 7
first term is 7
but we need to know value of last terms to calculate avg insufficient
from 1 &2
12th term
(7+11) ; 18
4th term is ; (7+3) ; 10
and we are given that
18= (7+n-1-3)
18=3+n
n=15
a15 = 7+14 ; 21
avg of 15 consecutive terms ; (7+21)/2 ; 14
OPTION C sufficient
