Download Solution PDFGiven:
Average score for 10 innings = 40 runs, Desired average = 43 runs
Formula used:
Total runs needed for desired average = Desired average × (Number of innings + 1)
Calculation:
Total runs needed = 43 × (10 + 1) ⇒ Total runs needed = 473
Runs in next innings = Total runs needed - Runs scored in 10 innings
⇒ Runs in next innings = 473 - 40 × 10 = 73
Therefore, she must score 73 runs in her next inning.
