Explanation by: Admin
Given , Sum of 30 numbers = 30 × 12 = 360
Sum of the first 20 numbers = 20 × 11 = 220
and Sum of the next 9 numbers = 9 × 10 = 90
∴ Last number = Sum of 30 numbers – Sum of the first 20 numbers – Sum of the next 9 numbers
Last number = 360 – 220 – 90
Last number = 360 – 310 = 50
