A) 64
B) 72
C) 80
D) 96
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
Let the number of wickets taken till the last match be n. \[\therefore \]Total runs at the rate 24.85 runs per wicket = 24.85 n Total runs after the current match = 24.85 n + 52 Total number of wickets after the current match = n + 5 Bowing average after the current match \[=\frac{24.85n+52}{n+5}=24.85-0.85\] \[\therefore \] \[\frac{24.85n+52}{n+5}=24\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[24.85n+52=24n+120\] \[\Rightarrow \]\[0.85n=120-52\,\,\,\,\,\Rightarrow \,\,n=\frac{68}{0.85}=80\]You need to login to perform this action.
