Question

Lionel Messi's total goal score in his career is 804. His average score per match is 1.2. Find the number of matches he played.

• A. 670

Answer 1

The correct option is A 670
Given,
Total number of goal scored by Messi = 804
Average goal scored by Messi
= 1.2
Let's assume that total number of matches played by Messi is $x$.
We know that,
Average number of goal scored

= $\frac{\text{Total number of goals scored}}{\text{Total number of matches played}}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{804}{x}=1.2$

$\Rightarrow x=\frac{804}{1.2}$

$\Rightarrow x=670$
