5 numbers a,b,c,d,e
\n" ); document.write( "\"+Average+=+sum%2Fcount+\"
\n" ); document.write( "we know a+b+c+d=14*4=56
\n" ); document.write( "and a+b+c+d+e=16=5=80
\n" ); document.write( "so e = (a+b+c+d+e) - (a+b+c+d) = 80-56 = 24
\n" ); document.write( "5th integer is 24
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
