The simple method is
total runs takes in 10 over=3.2*10=32
we know dat target is 282
so
32+40*x=282
from this we get required run rate.

It may be like this:
Let the required run rate be x.
Then Run in 40 overs = 40x (Becoz run rate = run per over)
Run in 10 overs= 10x3.2 (It is given that run rate of 10 overs is 3.2)
We know we required to calculate the run rate for 282 runs.
Then according to question:
3.2x10+40x=282
32+40x=282
40x=250
x=250/40=6.25 ans
Let the required run rate be x.
Then Run in 40 overs = 40x (Becoz run rate = run per over)
Run in 10 overs= 10x3.2 (It is given that run rate of 10 overs is 3.2)
We know we required to calculate the run rate for 282 runs.
Then according to question:
3.2x10+40x=282
32+40x=282
40x=250
x=250/40=6.25 ans

@kalaivani,
We want to calculate how many runs needed for remaining 40 overs to find the run rate for remaining overs.
283 is total score req for 40 overs,10*3.2=32 runs scored in the first over

Why you write 283- (3. 2*10)?

Formula is, average=sum of runs in each overs(s)/number of overs(n)
given n=10,average=3.2
Then,substitute values in formula,
->3.2=s/10
->s=32
in 10 overs total run is 32
target=282
Then in 40 overs thy need 250 runs
here n=40,s=250
percentage=s/n=250/40=6.25
So ans=6.25
given n=10,average=3.2
Then,substitute values in formula,
->3.2=s/10
->s=32
in 10 overs total run is 32
target=282
Then in 40 overs thy need 250 runs
here n=40,s=250
percentage=s/n=250/40=6.25
So ans=6.25

Why we are using this formula?
