1)

What is the number of matches played by batsman C in the tournament?


A) 10

B) 16

C) 12

D) 18

E) 8

Answer:

Option C

Explanation:

The number of matches played by batsman C

The total runs scored = $\frac{Total runs made by C}{Average runs scored}$

The total runs scored = $\frac{Strike rate\times Total balls faced}{100}$

= $\frac{114\times 400}{100}$ = 456

So, the number of matches played by batsman C

= $\frac{456}{38}$ = 12
