Answer: A
Explanation:
Let the 8 consecutive integers be = (x), (x + 1), (x + 2), (x + 3), (x + 4), (x + 5), (x + 6) and (x + 7)
23
Sum of integers = (x)+ (x + 1)+ (x + 2)+ (x + 3)+ (x + 4)+ (x + 5)+ (x + 6) + (x + 7) = 2 × 8
=> 8x + 28 = 92

64
=> x = 8 = 8
(8)+(8+1)+(8+2)
∴ Average of first three integers = 3
