A cricketer has an average of 88 runs over 10 innings. If he scores 219 runs in the 11th inning, by how many runs (rounded off to the nearest whole number) does his average score increase?
Given:
Average over 10 innings = 88 runs
Score in 11th inning = 219 runs
Formula Used:
Total Runs = Average × Number of Innings
New Average =
Solution:
Total runs in 10 innings = 88 × 10 = 880
Total runs after 11 innings = 880 + 219 = 1099
New Average =
New Average = 99.909...
Increase in average = 99.909... - 88 = 11.909...
Rounding off to the nearest whole number, the increase is 12.
