Correct Answer: 7
Correct Answer: 60°
Correct Answer: 62
Correct Answer: 4312
Correct Answer: 8
Correct Answer: 76
Explanation:
Average = total runs / no.of innings = 32
So, total = Average x no.of innings = 32 x 10 = 320.
Now increase in avg = 4runs. So, new avg = 32+4 = 36runs
Total runs = new avg x new no. of innings = 36 x 11 = 396
Runs made in the 11th inning = 396 - 320 = 76
Correct Answer: 0
Explanation:
Average of 20 numbers = 0.
Sum of 20 numbers = (0 * 20) = 0.
It is quite possible that 19 of these numbers may be positive and if their sum is a, then 20th number is (- a).
Correct Answer: 4991
Explanation:
Total sale for 5 months = Rs. (6435 + 6927 + 6855 + 7230 + 6562) = Rs. 34009.
Required sale = Rs.[(6500 x 6) - 34009]
= Rs. (39000 - 34009)
= Rs. 4991.
Correct Answer: 85 kg
Explanation:
Total weight increased = (8 x 2.5) kg = 20 kg.
Weight of new person = (65 + 20) kg = 85 kg.
Correct Answer: 45 kg
Explanation:
Weight of the teacher = (35.4 x 25 - 35 x 24) kg = 45 kg.
