Solution : Ram has an average score of 65 runs in 19 innings. Total runs = Average runs × Number of innings So, his total runs in 19 innings are (65 × 19) = 1235 runs To get an average of 67 in 20 innings, he has to score, [(67 × 20) – 1235] = 1340 – 1235 = 105 runs Hence, the correct answer is 105.
