Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 2 i.e. 27.

The first eight multiples of 6 = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, and 48,

Average = the sum of numbers/total numbers

The sum of the first 8 multiples of 6 = 6 + 12 + 18 + 24 + 30 + 36 + 42 + 48 = 216

The total numbers = 8

Hence,

The required average = 216/8 = 27
