Step-by-step explanation:

☛Question:-

The average of runs scored by each of the 11 batsmen was 23. If the first five batsmen scored 38 runs on an average and the last five batsmen scored 12.6 runs on an average, how many runs did the sixth batsman score?

☞Answer:-

Given:-

• The avarage number of runs by scoring each of the 11 batsmen is 23.
• The number of runs by first five batsmen is 38.
• The number of runs by last five batsmen is 12.6.

To find:-

• The number of runs scored by sixth batsmen.

Solution:-

Average number of rest of the players,

$= > \: \frac{11 \: \times \: 23 \: - \: 113}{10}$

$= > \: \frac{253 \: - \: 113}{10}$

$= > \: \frac{140}{10}$

$= > \: 14 \: runs$

⇛ Hence, the number of runs scored by sixth batsmen is 14.
