First 10 - run rate 3.2
3.2 = sum of runs/10
Sum = 3.2×10 = 32
40 over total runs 282.
So, 282 - 32 = 250 remaining runs.
Run rate = 250/40 = 6.25.

Avg of 6 months = (6435+6927+6855+7230+6562+x)/6 = 6500.
(34009+x)/6 = 6500,
34009+x = 39000,
x = 39000-34009,
x = 4991.

Runs scored= overs * runrate.
= 10 *3.2.
Runs scored in 10 overs is 32 runs.
Total runs for 50 overs= 282runs.
Runs for 40 overs is = 282-32.
= 250 runs.
Runrate for 40 overs is = 250/40 is 6.25 (option A).

So we calculate the runs in the first 10 overs = 10 * 3.2
First 10 overs they got 32 runs
Total runs for 50 overs is 282
Then, the remaining 40 overs they got = 282 - 32 = 250.
250/40 = 6.25

10 overs ------------ 3.2 rr
40 overs ------------ ?
Target = 282.

First 10 overs => 10 x 3.2 = 32 Runs.
282 - 32 = 250 Runs Scored in the remaining 40 overs.

Total 50 overs
RunRate in remaining 40 overs => 250/40.
=> 6.25 RR.

Total Runs in 10 overs/number of overs = run rate.
Total Runs in 10 overs/10 = 3.2.
Total Runs in 10 overs = 32.

Scores to achieve - Total Runs in 10 overs.
282 - 32 = 250.

250/40 = run rate.
So, run rate = 6.25.

Run rate = number of runs/number of overs.

Runs scored= run rate*overs.
= 3.2*10,
= 32.

In remaining 40 overs they score 250 runs.
Runs scored=run rate * overs.
250 = run rate * 40.
Run rate = 250/40.
= 6.25.

Assume run rate as average,

Then, Avg of first 10 overs = 3.2.

Avg(10) = total runs for 10overs/no.of overs.
3.2=total runs/10.
Total runs for 10 overs = 3.2 * 10 = 32,
Remaining runs=282-32 = 250,
Avg runs remaining 40 overs = 250/40 = 6.25.
