Dear student
Average score=Total runs in 7 inningsTotal no
of innings⇒35=Total runs in 7 innings7⇒Total runs in 7 innings=245Now, Average of 8 innings=Total runs in 8 inningsTotal no
of innings=Total runs in 7 innings+Runs in 8th inningTotal no
of innings=245+278=34If he wishes to increase his average to 36 runs after his 8th inning,thenAverage after 8 innings=Total runs in 8 inningsTotal no
of innings=Total runs in 7 innings+Runs in 8th inning=xTotal no
of innings⇒36=245+x8⇒x=288-245⇒x=43So, he should score 43 runs in 8th inning to make his average 36
