• A. 93
• B. 90
• C. 85
• D. 87

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 93

Solution: Given:- Average runs scored by 7 players = 63 ⇒ Total runs scored by players = 63 × 7 = 441 ⇒ Sum of runs scored by 6 players = 130 + 42 + 24 + 53 + 45 + 54 = 348 ⇒ Runs scored by 7th player = 441 – 348 = 93 ∴ The required answer is 93.
