Correct Answer - Option 4 : 2800
Given:
The 5 consecutive even numbers A, B, C, D and E = 52
Formula used:
Average = Sum of observations/Number of observations
Calculation:
Let the 5 consecutive even numbers be x, x + 2, x + 4, x + 6 and x + 8 respectively
According to the question
⇒ x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 + x + 8 = 5 × 52
⇒ 5x + 20 = 260
⇒ 5x = 240
⇒ x = 48
B = x + 2 = 48 + 2 = 50
E = x + 8 = 48 + 8 = 56
Product of B and E = (50 × 56)
⇒ Rs. 2800
∴ The product of B and E is Rs. 2800
