if we take odd no like
x, x+2, x+4, x+6, x+8
we get ans 186.

Question:
Thrice the sum of five consecutive odd numbers is 1425. What is the value of twice the second largest odd number ?
Options:
A) 186
B) 192
C) 194
D) 198
Solution:
Ans: (c) Let the largest odd number = x

ATQ,

3(x – 8 + x – 6 + x – 4 + x – 2 + x) = 1425

5x – 20 = 475

5x = 495

x = 99

So, twice the second largest = 2(99 – 2)

= 194
