Options- A. 76
- B. 79
- C. 85
- D. 87
- Correct Answer
- 76
ExplanationAverage = 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: 39
Explanation:
Let the average after 17th innings = x
Then average after 16th innings = (x - 3)
Therefore 16 × (x - 3) + 87 = 17x
Therefore x = 39

Correct Answer: 62
Correct Answer: 4312
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.
