the batting average of a particular batsman is 59 runs in 46 innings . if the difference in his highest and lowest score is 150 runs and his average excluding these two innings is 58 runs , find his highest score .
"explanation : total runs scored by the batsman = 59 * 46 = 2714 runs now excluding the two innings the runs scored = 58 * 44 = 2552 runs hence the runs scored in the two innings = 2714 – 2552 = 162 runs . let the highest score be x , hence the lowest score = x – 150 x + ( x - 150 ) = 162 2 x = 312 x = 156 runs answer a"
divide(add(150, subtract(multiply(59, 46), multiply(58, subtract(46, const_2)))), const_2)
