a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7
a1+a2+a3+a4+a5=5*15=75
a3+a4+a5+a6+a7=5*22=110
(n+1)>=n
a1=a2=a3=a4=a......(1)
a6=a7=a5............(2)
from 1 and 2
2a+3a5=110
4a+a5=75
a5=29 (ans)

let the no. be : a1 a2 a3 a4 a5 a6 a7
Given a1+a2+a3+a4+a5=75--(i); a3+a4+a5+a6+a7=110;--(ii) we have to find the max. value of a5.
Now, as it is given in question term(n+1)>=term(n).
So, to find max value of a5 we have to set a5,a6,a7 equal.
when u will put 29, then should satisfy (a3+a4)=23,
So, at the max values for that would be (12+11).Now it must also satisfy(a1+a2)=24. But the max values for a1 & a2 can not be greater than 11. so a1=a2=11. This does not make total 75.

now when we will check that for 28, It will satisfy the condition.
Thus answer is : 28.

Ans. c)28
Suppose Numbers are A,B,C,D,E,F,G
Now we have
A+B+C+D+E=15*5=75...............(1)
C+D+E+F+G=22*5=110..............(2)
From 1&2 we can have (F+G)-(A+B)=35.........(3)
Now hit n try for options starting from maximum
Case1: if E=29
then min(F+G)=58 and C+D=23
A+B=23(satisfying eq.1 & eq.3)
but for the given condition in question B

Ans is 23..
a1,a2,a3,a4,a5,a6,a7(all are +ve integers)

a1+a2+a3+a4+a5=5*15=75------(1)
