Run rate = number of runs/number of overs.

Use the Average formula :

Average = sum of observations/number of observations.

For first 10 overs :
3.2 = Sum/10 --> Sum = 32--> Run in first 10 overs.
The total score is 282. First 10 overs, we scored 32 runs. So, remaining (282-32) runs=250 runs in 40 overs.

Applying the formula:

Average = sum of observations/number of observations.
Average= 250/40 = 6.25.

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

Run rate = Total runs scored/total overs.
in the 10 overs;
3.2 = total run scores/10.
So, total run = 3.2 * 10 = 32.

The remaining runs we have to score in the 40 overs is (282-32 = 250).
Run rate = Total runs scored/total overs.
Run rate = 250/40 = 6.25.

10 * 3.2 = 32
40 * X = 282
=> 282 - 32 = 250.

40X = 250.
X = 250/40.
X = 6.25.

First 10 over,
3.2 = 10 * 3.2 = 32runs.
40 overs is 282 = 282-32.
= 250.

250 ÷ 40 = 6.25,
6.25.

It's very simple.

Target 282.

40 overs are remaining.
3.2 run rate * 10 over = 32 score till know.
282 - 32 = 250 need to win the game.
40x = 250,
=> x = 40/250,
Hence, the run rate is 6.25.

First 10 overs run rate 3.2=3.2 * 10 = 32.
Next, 40 overs is 282 = 282 - 32 = 250.
250 ÷ 40 overs = 6.25.
So, the answer is 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.
