Question 46

The average runs of a cricketer in a tournament, in which he played 14 matches, are 47. His average runs in the first seven matches are 57 and that in the last five matches are 44. If the runs made by him in 8th match are 15, how many runs did he make in 9th match ?

Solution

Total runs in 14 matches = 14 * 47 = 658

Total runs in the first 7 matches = 7 * 57 = 399

Total runs in the last 5 matches = 5 * 44 = 220

Runs made in the 8th match = 15

=> Runs made in the 9th match = 658 - (399 + 220 + 15)

= 658 - 634 = 24
