Question

the average of the runs made by 10 players in a cricket team of 11 players is 43, if the eleventh player's runs are also considered the average of 11 players run decreases by 1. How many runs dis the eleventh player make?​

Answer 1

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

total runs made by 10 players

= 10 × 43 = 430

let eleventh player scored x runs

(430 + x)/11 = 43 - 1

430 + x = 42 × 11

x = 462 - 430 = 32 runs

eleventh player scored 32 runs

Answer 2

Answer :-

11th player scored 32 runs.

Explanation :-

Average runs scored by 10 players = 43

Number of players = 10

Sum of runs scored = Average * Number of players = 43 * 10 = 430

Lete the runs scored by 11th player be x

Sum of runs scored by 11 players = 430 + x

Given

Average of 11 players = Average of 10 players decreased by 1

⇒ Sum of runs scored/Number of players = 43 - 1

⇒ (430 + x)/11 = 42

⇒ 430 + x = 42(11)

⇒ 430 + x = 462

⇒ x = 462 - 430

⇒ x = 32

Therefore 11th player scored 32 runs.
