Correct Answer: 45
Solution : Let the numbers be $x, (x+1), (x+2), (x+3), (x+4)$. Given average = 43 According to the question: Average $=\frac{x+x+1+x+2+x+3+x+4}{5}=43$ ⇒ $\frac{5x+10}{5}=43$ ⇒ $5x+10=215$ ⇒ $5x=205$ ⇒ $x=41$ $\therefore$ The largest natural number $=(x+4)=41+4=45$ Hence, the correct answer is 45.
