A batsman has completed 15 innings and his average is 22 runs. How many runs must he make in his next innings so as to raise his average to 26?
A36
B48
C64
D86
Answer:
D. 86
Read Explanation:
Total runs of 15 innings = 22*15=330 runs
he needs a score of x in 16th innings,
Then average in 16th innings = (330+x) /16
(330+x) /16 = 26
330+x = 16*26
330+x = 416
X = 416-330
X = 86
