    B 32.73 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 15.47 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 34.68 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ,
    Total runs in 50 innings = 32 × 50 = 1600

    Runs in next 5 innings = 40 + 30 + 35 + 45 + 50 = 200

    Required average = (1600 + 200) ÷ (50 + 5)

    = 1800 ÷ 55

    = 32.73
