Find the average of the the first 15 multiples of 5.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e 40.

The first 15 multiples of 5 = 5, 10, 15, 20, ..., 75

First term = 5

Last term = 75

Number of terms = 15

Average = (First term + Last term) ÷ 2

Average = (5 + 75) ÷ 2 = 80 ÷ 2 = 40
