Find kth smallest number in range [1, n] when all the odd numbers are deleted

Given two integers n and k, the task is to find the k^th smallest element from the range [1, n] after deleting all the odd numbers from the range.
Examples:

Input: n = 8, k = 3
Output: 6
After deleting all the odd numbers from the range [1, 8]
2, 4, 6 and 8 are the only numbers left and 6 is the 3^rd smallest.
Input: n = 8, k = 4
Output:

Approach: Since all odd numbers are removed so now only even numbers are left i.e. 2, 4, 6, 8, …..
Now, the k^th smallest element will always be 2 * k.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++

// C++ implementation of the approach
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to return the kth smallest
// element from the range [1, n] after
// removing all the odd elements
int kthSmallest(int n, int k)
{
    return (2 * k);
}
 
// Driver code
int main()
{
    int n = 8, k = 4;
    cout << kthSmallest(n, k);
 
    return 0;
}

Java

// Java implementation of the approach
class GFG {
 
    // Function to return the kth smallest
    // element from the range [1, n] after
    // removing all the odd elements
    static int kthSmallest(int n, int k)
    {
        return (2 * k);
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void main(String args[])
    {
        int n = 8, k = 4;
        System.out.print(kthSmallest(n, k));
    }
}

Python3

# Python3 implementation of the approach
 
# Function to return the kth smallest
# element from the range [1, n] after
# removing all the odd elements
def kthSmallest(n, k):
    return 2 * k
 
# Driver code
n = 8; k = 4
print(kthSmallest(n, k))

C#

// C# implementation of the approach
using System;
class GFG {
 
    // Function to return the kth smallest
    // element from the range [1, n] after
    // removing all the odd elements
    static int kthSmallest(int n, int k)
    {
        return (2 * k);
    }
 
    // Driver code
    public static void Main()
    {
        int n = 8, k = 4;
        Console.WriteLine(kthSmallest(n, k));
    }
}
