In the first 10 overs of a cricket game, the run rate was only 3.2. What should be the run rate in the remaining 40 overs to reach the target of 282 runs?
6.25
5.5
7.4
5
Explanation:
Runs scored in the first 10 overs = $ 10 \times 3.2 = 32$
Total runs = 282
Remaining runs to be scored = 282 - 32 = 250
Remaining overs = 40
Run rate needed = $\dfrac{250}{40} = 6.25$
