Correct Answer: 42


Solution : The first number to be divisible by 7 in this range = 14
The last number to be divisible by 7 in this range = 70
This forms an arithmetic progression, So the average = $\frac{70+14}{2}$ = 42 [Using arithmetic mean = $\frac{\text{First term + Last Term}}{2}$]
Hence, the correct answer is 42.
