A. 20

B. 23

C. 21

D. 19

Answer: Option A

Solution(By Examveda Team)

Average of first 148 positive number
$$\eqalign{ & = \frac{{N\left( {N + 1} \right)}}{N} \cr & = N + 1 \cr & = 148 + 1 \cr & = 149 \cr} $$
Average of first 129 odd number $$ = \frac{{{N^2}}}{N} = N = 129$$
Difference = 149 - 129 = 20
