A batsman's avg in 12 innings is 24.00. If his avg is to be double of the no of innings (15 innings), what should he score in the remaining three innings (avg)?

• let total runs done by a batsman in 12 innings be x
  therefore,
  x/12=24 that means x=12*24=288 runs
  for 15 innings, avg was doubled i.e.. 48.00
  therefore,
  (x+y)/15=48 where y is the no of runs done in last 3 innings
  y=432
  therefore average is 432/3=144

• if we assume that the batsman has been out 12 times, his total runs become 288. In that case, for him to have an avg of 30 ( double of no of innings) from 15 innings, he has to score 162 runs and get out on all the three innings. In this case, thus, from 3 matches, the average comes to 54.00.

• 12 innings avg is 24 so total runs=24*12=288
  15 inning and avg is 30(double of no of 15 inning)so total runs=15*30=450
  
  3 innings total run=450-288=162
  avg of 3 inning=162/3=54 answer

• Ans: 162 runs
  total score for 12 inn = 288; total score for 30 inn = 450 ; Hence 450 -288 =162 runs to get the avg as 30.00

• 15*48-(12*24)=442.
