Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Key idea: average × number of matches = total runs; find the extra runs needed to reach the new average.
Current total runs = 10 × 32 = 320.
Desired new average = 32 + 4 = 36.
Total runs needed after next match = 11 × 36 = 396.
Runs to score in the next match = 396 − 320 = 76.
Answer: 76 runs
