Answer:

29

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean is calculated as

mean = $\frac{sum}{count}$

let x be the score required to give a mean of 27 in the 6 games

$\frac{38+27+23+19+26+x}{6}$ = 27 ( multiply both sides by 6 )

133 + x = 162 ( subtract 133 from both sides )

x = 29

He requires to score 29 points
