      Question

      The average score of a bowler in a series of matches is

      28. His average increases by 2 when he takes 60 wickets in the next match. Find the total number of wickets taken before that match.
      A 420 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 400 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 440 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 430 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Let the number of matches before be 'P'.

      Wickets before = 28P

      (28P + 60) / (P + 1) = 30
      => 28P + 60 = 30P + 30
      => 2P = 30 => P = 15

      Total wickets = 28 ├Ч 15 = 420
