    Question

    In a cricket match the captain of one of a team scored

    23 runs more than the average runs scored by the remaining 9 batsmen of that team who batted in the match. If the total runs scored by all the batsmen of that team were 223, how many runs did the captain score?
    A 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 46 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 52 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 43 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Let the average runs scored by the remaining 9 batsmen be x. So, runs scored by the captain = x + 23 Total score of the team = 9x + x + 23 = 10x + 23  => 10x + 23 = 223  => x = 20 So, the score of the captain = 20 + 23 = 43
