    2. 27
    3. 29
    4. 31
    Answer And Explanation

    Answer: Option B

    Explanation:

    Let the numbers are x, x+2, x+4, x+6, then
    \begin{aligned}
    => \frac{x+(x+2)+(x+4)+(x+6)}{4} = 24
    \end{aligned}

    \begin{aligned}
    => \frac{4x+12)}{4} = 24
    \end{aligned}

    \begin{aligned}
    => x+3 = 24 => x = 21
    \end{aligned}

    So largest number is 21 + 6 = 27
