The average of first 124 even numbers is

The correct answer is

125

To find the average of the first 124 even numbers, we can use the formula for the average of the first n even numbers. The formula to find the n-th even number is given by:

2n

Thus, the first 124 even numbers are: 2, 4, 6, ..., 2 × 124.

The formula for the average of the first n natural numbers is:

Average = (Sum of n numbers) / n

The sum of the first n even numbers is:

Sum = 2 + 4 + 6 + ... + 2n = 2(1 + 2 + 3 + ... + n)

The sum of the first n natural numbers is given by:

Sum = n(n + 1)/2

Therefore, the sum of the first n even numbers is:

2 × n(n + 1)/2 = n(n + 1)

Substituting n = 124:

Sum = 124 × 125

Thus, the average of the first 124 even numbers is:

Average = (124 × 125) / 124

= 125

Therefore, the average of the first 124 even numbers is 125.
