Question : The average number of runs scored by a player is 32 out of 10 innings. How many runs must he make in the next innings to increase his average by 6?
Option 1: 38
Option 2: 40
Option 3: 6
Option 4: 98
Correct Answer: 98
Solution :
According to the question,
Average runs = 32
Total runs = 32 × 10 = 320
Now the increase in average is 6 runs
So, the new average = 32 + 6 = 38 runs
Total runs = 38 × 11 = 418
Therefore, the runs made in the 11
th
inning = 418 − 320 = 98
Hence, the correct answer is 98.
