Hey!!!!

Good Morning

__________

let the marks which Shikhar has to secure be x marks.

Number of Tests => 5(n)

Past Score => 73,86,78 and 75

Required Average = 80

Thus we know

=> Average = Sum of all observations/n

=> Sum of all observations = 73 + 86 + 78 + 75 + x

=> Sum = 312 + x

Thus Average = (312 + x)/5

=> 80 = (312 + x)/5

=> 312 + x = 400

=> x = 88

Thus Shikhar has to score 88 marks in next test to make an average of 80.
