Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 61 Given: 10th inning score = 70 Average increment = 1 Concept: Average score = Total scores / Total number of innings Solution: Let average score before 10th inning = p New average score after 10th inning = p + 1 Total score before 10th inning = 9p Average = ⇒ (9p + 70) / 10 = p + 1 ⇒ 9p + 70 = 10p + 10 ⇒ 10p - 9p = 70 - 10 ⇒ p = 60 ∴ Average after 10th inning = p + 1 ⇒ 60 + 1 ⇒ 61 |
