      Question

      A batsman scores 42 runs in the first match, 58 runs in

      the second match and 50 runs in the third match. If he wants to increase his average by 5 after the fourth match, then how many runs must he score in the fourth match?
      A 45 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 70 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 80 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E None of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ, Current total runs = 42 + 58 + 50 = 150 Current average = 150 / 3 = 50 New average after increasing by 5 = 55 Required total after 4 matches = 55 x 4 = 220 Runs needed in fourth match = 220 - 150 = 70 Hence, the correct answer is 70.
