The sum of five numbers is 655. The average of the first two numbers is 85 and the third number is 125. Find the average of the two numbers?  Answers:  A) 150  B) 180  C) 190  D) 200  E) 250
Let the five numbers be P, Q, R, S and T.   =&gt; P + Q + R + S + T = 655.   (P + Q)/2 = 85 and R = 125   P + Q = 170 and R = 125   P + Q + R = 295   S + T = 655 - (P + Q + R) = 360   Average of the last two numbers = (S + T)/2 = 180.   ANSWER 180
