A cricketer's average in 12 innings is 62. If his highest score is excluded, the average drops to 58. What is his highest score?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 106.
Sum of 12 innings = 12 × 62 = 744
Sum of 11 innings (excluding the highest score) = 11 × 58 = 638
Now, highest score = 744 - 638 = 106
