The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will analyze the relationships between the numbers A, B, C, D, and E based on the information given in the question. ### Step 1: Understand the relationships We know that: - C is the average of A and D. - B is greater than C and less than D. - B is also the average of A and E. ### Step 2: Express C in terms of A and D Since C is the average of A and D, we can express it mathematically as: \[ C = \frac{A + D}{2} \] This means that C is located between A and D. ### Step 3: Establish the inequalities From the information given: 1. Since C is the average of A and D, we have: \[ A < C < D \] 2. Since B is greater than C and less than D, we can write: \[ C < B < D \] 3. Since B is the average of A and E, we can express it as: \[ B = \frac{A + E}{2} \] This implies that: \[ A < B \] ### Step 4: Combine the inequalities From the inequalities established: - We have \( A < C < B < D \) - And since \( B = \frac{A + E}{2} \), we know that \( A < B \) implies \( A < \frac{A + E}{2} \), which leads to \( A < E \). ### Step 5: Order the numbers Now we can summarize the order of the numbers: - A is the smallest. - C is greater than A but less than B. - B is greater than C and less than D. - D is the largest. Thus, the order of the numbers is: \[ A < C < B < D \] ### Step 6: Identify the middle number Since we have five integral numbers and we know the order: - The middle number in the sequence of A, C, B, D, and E will be B, as it is positioned between A and D. ### Conclusion Therefore, the middle most number in the sequence is: \[ \text{B} \]
