The set $\{2, 4, 6, \dots, n\}$ contains the positive consecutive even integers from 2 through $n$. When one of the integers from the set is removed, the average of the remaining integers in the set is 28. What is the least possible value of $n$

Respuesta :

The least possible value of n is 27.

According to the statement

We have given that the set which is {2,4,6,8.....n} and and one set is removed from them the average of remaining integers is 28.

Then

Firstly set contain n numbers

But after that set contain n-1 numbers after removal of 1 digit from them.

and average value of remaining digit is 28 then 28th term become after removal is

28th term =28*2

28th term = 56.

then

we use the formula to calculate n

n-1 =28

then the value of n become 27.

the least possible value of n is 27.

So, The least possible value of n is 27.
