Its not easy having a mathematics professor as a friend. When she invited you to her house she
says, “All the houses on my side of the street are numbered consecutively in even numbers. There are
Six houses on my Side of my block and sum of their numbers is 9870. You don’t know which block I
live on, and it’s a long street, but I will tell you that I live in the lowest number on my side of the block.
What’s the number? Or are you just going to ring the first- numbered doorbell for twenty blocks?
a) 1580
b)1640
c)1650
d)1680

• In this Case Just Use the AP formula-
  Sum=9870
  n=6
  d=2
  9870=(6/2)(a+a+(6-1)x2))
  =>9870=3(2a+10)
  =>9840=6a
  =>a=1640
  Ans- b

• (x)+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+8)+(x+10)=9870 solving
  ans 1640
