The sum of four consecutive even numbers is 292. What would be the smallest number?
A. 74
B. 76
C. 70
D. 68
✅ The correct answer is option C. 70.
Let the four consecutive even numbers be 2(x – 2), 2(x – 1), 2x, 2(x + 1)
Let the four consecutive even numbers be 2(x – 2), 2(x – 1), 2x, 2(x + 1)
Their sum = 8x – 4 = 292 => x = 37
Smallest number is: 2(x – 2) = 70.
