Question
Ajit has a certain average for 11 innings. In the 12th inning, he scores 102 runs, thereby increasing his average by 6 runs. What is his new average?Question Description : 36202824
Solution
Sure, here is the step by step solution:
-
Ajit increased his average by 6 runs after scoring 102 runs in the 12th inning. This means the sum of his runs for the first 11 innings was increased by 6*11 = 66 runs.
-
The total runs scored by Ajit in the 12 innings is 102 (in the 12th inning) + 66 (increase in the sum of runs for the first 11 innings) = 168 runs.
-
Therefore, his new average after the 12th inning is 168/12 = 14 runs.
So, Ajit's new average is 14 runs.
