The average score of 5 players of a cricket team is 55. It is also observed that 3 of these 5 players have an average score of 55. What will be the average score of the remaining two players?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is Option 1 i.e. 55
Total score of 5 players = 5 × 55 = 275
Total score of 3 players = 3 × 55 = 165
Score of remaining 2 players = 275 − 165 = 110
Average of remaining 2 players = 110 ÷ 2 = 55
