if the average of 123 consecutive integers is 321, find the sum of the smallest and the largest of these integers.
:
There will be as many consecutive integers above 321 as there is below 321
320/2 = 160 above and 160 below
:
161-------------------------321-----------------------481
" find the sum of the smallest and the largest of these integers.
161 + 481 = 642 (which averages out to 321)
