Average of 8 consecutive odd numbers = 656/8 = 82∴ Fourth number = 82 - 1 = 81∴ First numbers = 75Average of 4 even numbers = 87∴ Second even number = 87 - 1 = 86Second largest even number = 88∴ Required sum = 75 + 88 = 163
Let the number of children be 'x' Therefore, each child will receiveX x 60/100 = 3x/5 chocolates∴ X x 3x/5 = 735∴ x² x 735x5/3 = 1225∴ x = 1225 = 35∴ Number of chocolates = 3x/5 = 21
