In a cricket match, Ashwin scored 40perct. Of total run scored by his team & Arijit scored 140 run which is 200/9perct less than Ashwin's score, find total run scored by Ashwin's team, Anyone please answer it.

Let the run in 5th match be x.

Total runs scored in 4 matches = 80*4 = 320.

Now, when 320 added with x avg becomes 84 (as per question).

= (320+x)/5 = 84.

x = 100.

Answer check: (320+100)/5 = 84.

Left over = 40-10 = 30overs.
So, required run rate = (target /left over ) - current run rate.
= (282/30)- 3.2.
= 6.2.

@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

Hi friends, please think logically.

(1) Run rate of 10 ovres is 3.2 (i.e 3.2*10=32runs).

(2) Total runs are 282(i.e 282-32=250

(3) In 40 overs runs are 250.

Now, Run rate is 250/40 = 6.25 //

In the first 10 overs the run rate was = 3.2.

Than total run is = 32.

Where total target is - 282.

Let the remaining 40 overs run rate is = x.

32+40x = 282.

40x = 250.

x = 25/4 = 6.25 answer.

Its real solution is that,

282 = 5.64 * 50 = 40 * req run rate + 3.2 * 10 then answer is 6.25 means.

Total scored run in 50 over = total run rate * over = 40over * run rate + 10over * run rate.

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.

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

In 10 overs run scored is 250, and in remaining 40 overs to get the total target of 282, remaining runs are 250 as 32 has been scored. Divide 250 by 40 that will be the required run-rate.
