Answer:

14.25 is answer good got

Answer 2

Run Rate:

• Run Rate is the average number of runs a batting side scores per over

$\huge\mathfrak\blue{Answer:}$

Given:

• We have been given that in a T20 match a team is having run rate as 5.25 in first 8 overs
• Target to be reached is 177 runs

To Find:

• We have to the run rate required in next 12 overs in order to win the match

Solution:

We have been given that:

Overs Thrown = 8 overs

Run rate at that moment = 5.25

Using Specified Formula

$\boxed{\sf{\green{Run \: Rate = \dfrac{Runs \: scored}{Total \: overs}}}}$

Substituting the values

$\implies \sf{5.25 = \dfrac{Runs \: scored}{8}}$

$\implies \sf{Runs \: scored = 5.25 \times 8 }$

$\implies \sf{Runs \: scored = 42}$

After 8 over , runs scored by team is 42

_________________________________

$\sf{Runs \: remaining = Total - scored }$

$\sf{Runs \: remaining = 177 - 42 }$

$\boxed{\sf{Runs \: remaining = 135 }}$

$\boxed{\sf{Remaining \: overs = 12 }}$

_________________________________

$\underline{\large\mathfrak\orange{Required \: Run \: Rate \: is \: as \: Follows}}$

$\implies \boxed{\sf{\green{Required \: Rate = \dfrac{Runs \: remaining}{Remaining \: overs}}}}$

Substituting the Values

$\implies \sf{Required \: Rate = \dfrac{135}{12}}$

$\implies \sf{11.25}$

Hence Required Run rate is 11.25
