The average of runs scored by 11 players of the cricket team is 60. If the runs scored by captain are neglected, the average of runs scored by captain are neglected, the average of runs scored by the remaining players increases by 5. How many runs were scored by the captain?

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 10

Given:

Average runs of 11 players = 60

Average runs of all players excluding the score by the captain = 60 + 5 = 65

Formula used:

Average of n numbers = Sum of all numbers/n

Calculation:

Total runs of the team = 11 × 60 = 660

Total runs of the team excluding the captain = 10 × 65 = 650

∴ Runs scored by the captain = 660 - 650 = 10
