Correct Answer: 21
Correct Answer: 19
Correct Answer: 33.1
Correct Answer: 4
Explanation:
Let the number of boys in the group originally be x.
Total weight of the boys = 30x
After the boy weighing 35 kg joins the group, total weight of boys = 30x + 35
So 30x + 35 + 31(x + 1) = > x = 4.
Correct Answer: 48 runs
Explanation:
Let average for 10 innings be x. Then,
(10x + 108)/11 = x + 6 => 11x + 66 = 10x + 108 => x = 42.
New average = (x + 6) = 48 runs.
