    Solution

    Let the six numbers be a, b, c, d, e, f. a + b = 2 ┬а70 = 140┬а....................... (i) e + f = 2 ┬а45 = 90┬а ........................ (ii) a+ b + c + d + e + f = 6 ┬а65 = 390 ........................(iii) We get the sum of third and fourth digit by subtracting (i) and (ii) from (iii) a+ b+ c + d + e + f тАУ a тАУ b тАУ e┬а - f = 390 тАУ 140 тАУ 90 =160 тИ┤ c + d = 160 ┬атИ┤ Required average = ┬а ┬а= 80
