Question : There are two numbers such that the first number is four times the second number. If their average is 65, then what is the second number?
Option 1: 26
Option 2: 14
Option 3: 24
Option 4: 28
Correct Answer: 26
Solution :
Let $x$ be the second number.
then first number = $4x$
Average of two numbers = $\frac{x+4x}{2}$
⇒ 65 = $\frac{5x}{2}$
⇒ $x$ = $\frac{130}{5}$
= 26
Hence, the correct answer is 26.
