Run = (no of runs took in one over)/(total possible no of runs),
So, instead of 3.2 = x/10, it should be 3.2 = x/(10 * 6),
Since, 1 over has 6 runs?
So, instead of 3.2 = x/10, it should be 3.2 = x/(10 * 6),
Since, 1 over has 6 runs?

The average monthly expenditure of Ravi was 100 during the first 3 months. 2200 during the next 4 months and 4620 during the subsequent five months of the year. If the total saving during the year was 2100. Find Ravi's average monthly income.

@Mike.
avg = sum of observations/number of observatios.
Avg expenditure = 100.
Number of months = 3.
So, sum = 100 * 3 = 300.
Similarly for rest of the months 8800 and 23100 respectively.
Total income = expenditures + savings.
So, 300 + 8800 + 23100 + 2100 = 34300.
Avg income = total income/12(months).
Avg = 34300/12 = 2858.
avg = sum of observations/number of observatios.
Avg expenditure = 100.
Number of months = 3.
So, sum = 100 * 3 = 300.
Similarly for rest of the months 8800 and 23100 respectively.
Total income = expenditures + savings.
So, 300 + 8800 + 23100 + 2100 = 34300.
Avg income = total income/12(months).
Avg = 34300/12 = 2858.

10 3.2 32
40 x 250 (282-32).
x = 250/40 = 6.25.
10 3.2 32
40 x 250 (282-32).
x = 250/40 = 6.25.

Over * run rate = run => 10 * 3.2 = 32 runs.
Target = 282, our score is 32 runs so required run => 282 - 32 = 250.
Over * run rate = runs.
So run rate = 250/40 = 6.25.
Target = 282, our score is 32 runs so required run => 282 - 32 = 250.
Over * run rate = runs.
So run rate = 250/40 = 6.25.

x = req run rate.
(10 * 3.2) + (40 * x) = 282,
32 + 40x = 282,
40x = 250,
x = 6.25.
(10 * 3.2) + (40 * x) = 282,
32 + 40x = 282,
40x = 250,
x = 6.25.
