Question 998559: a team scored the following number of runs in their games this season: 6, 2, 5, 9, 11, 4, 5, 8, 6, 7, 5. If they want to end the season with an average of 6 runs per game, how many runs must they score in their final game of the season? Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! They will have played 12 games. To average 6 runs per game, they will have had to total 12*6=72 runs.
Thus we add the run production of the first eleven games and subtract from 72 to see what they need...
72-68 = 4 runs
