Question
The average runs of a bowler increased by 4 runs when he
took 144 wickets in his 40th match. Find the average wickets taken by the bowler after 40 matches.Solution
ATQ, Let the average wickets taken by the bowler in 39 matches be ‘x’ So according to the question: 39x + 144 = 40 × (x + 4) 39x + 144 = 40x + 160 x = 144 - 160 x = 16 So, the average wickets taken by the bowler after 40 matches = 16 + 4 = 20 wickets
