    The average score of a player in 30 matches is 42. In the

    next five matches, he scored 80, 70, 60, 55, and 45. What is his new average?
    A 25.20 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 44.86 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15.76 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 34.80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,
    Total runs in the first 30 matches = 42 × 30 = 1260

    Total runs in the next 5 matches = 80 + 70 + 60 + 55 + 45 = 310

    Required average = (1260 + 310) ÷ (30 + 5)

    = 1570 ÷ 35

    = 44.86
