Let's call the smallest even number "x".
Since the even numbers are consecutive, we can express the four even numbers as x, x+2, x+4, and x+6.
We know that the average of these four numbers is 27, so we can set up an equation:
(x + (x+2) + (x+4) + (x+6))/4 = 27
Simplifying and solving for x:
(4x + 12)/4 = 27
4x + 12 = 108
4x = 96
x = 24
Therefore, the largest even number is x+6, which is 24+6 = 30.
The average of four consecutive even is 27.Find value of the largest these number
