The average score of 11 cricket team players in a one-day match is 32. The runs scored by the ten players are 11, 51, 2, 96, 21, 33, 0, 32, 9 and 14. What is the score of the 11th player?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C
Explanation
The Correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 83.
We know that,
Average = Sum of observations/Number of observations
The sum of scores of 11 players = 32 × 11 = 352
Total runs scored by 10 players = 11 + 51 + 2 + 96 + 21 + 33 + 0 + 32 + 9 + 14 = 269
Hence,
The run scored by 11th players = 352 - 269 = 83
