    C 170.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 120.5 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Sum of first 12 numbers = (12 x 65) = 780 Sum of last 5 numbers = (70 x 5) = 350 Sum of 11th and 12th number = (780 - 350) = 430 So, 12th number = 430 x (7/20) = 150.5
