Question

A cricketer has completed 10 innings and his average is 21.5 runs. How many runs must he make in his next innings so as to raise his average to 24?

Options:
A .  42
B .  45
C .  47
D .  49
E .  None of these
Answer: Option D
 -  Total of 10 innings = 21.5 x 10 = 215
Suppose he needs a score of a in 11th innings; then average in 11 innings =
215 + a = 24 11
 
                       
 
or, a = 264-215 = 49
