Here, the difference is 13.
53-13 = 40.
40-13 = 27,
27-13 = 14.
53-13 = 40.
40-13 = 27,
27-13 = 14.

(53+27)/2 = 80,
80/2= 40,
So,(40+x)/2 = 27,
Therefore, x = 14.
80/2= 40,
So,(40+x)/2 = 27,
Therefore, x = 14.

53×1,
= 53-13.
40×1,
= 40-13.
27×1.
= 27-13,
= 14.
= 53-13.
40×1,
= 40-13.
27×1.
= 27-13,
= 14.
