The mean score of 10 players in a cricket match was 20.3 runs. If the highest individual score is removed, the mean score of the remaining 9 players becomes 17 runs. What was the highest score?

Question

Answer 1

If the mean of 10 players is 20.3 runs, the total runs=10×20.3=203 runs.

The mean of 9 players is 17 runs, so the total=9×17=153 runs.

So the difference 203-153=50 runs is the highest score.
