The average (arithmetic mean) of four numbers is 4x + 2. If one of the numbers is x, what is the average of the other three numbers?	Choose one.
A) x + 1 B) 3x + 3 C) 5x + 1 D) 5x + 8/3 E) 15x + 12
If the average of four numbers is 4x + 3, then the sum of all four numbers if 4 * (4x + 2) = 16x + 8. If one of the numbers is x, then the average of the remaining three numbers would be: (16x + 8 - x)/3 = (15x + 8)/3 = 5x + 8/3.   Answer is 5x + 8/3.
