1.
A batsman scored 110 runs which included 3 boundaries and 8 sixes. What percent of his total score did he make by running between the wickets?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Number of runs made by running = 110 - (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)
= 110 - (60)
= 50.
 Required percentage = |
 |
50 | x 100 |  % = 45 |
5 | % |
| 110 | 11 |

Total Runs 110.
3 boundaries = 3 * 4 = 12.
8 * 6 = 48,
12 + 48 = 60.
Between wickets is 110-60 = 50.
Now they have asked me to find the % of 110 = 50
Simply add 2 zeros to 50 and divide by 110
eg: %10 of x =a.
=>a00/10 find x.
eg: x% of 100 = a.
=>a00/100 find x.
x% of 110 = 50,
=>5000/110= 45.45.
3 boundaries = 3 * 4 = 12.
8 * 6 = 48,
12 + 48 = 60.

=>5000/110= 45.45.

Given that;
Total runs = 110,
Total six = 8 * 6 = 48,
Boundaries = 4 * 3 = 12,
110 - 48 + 12 = 50,
To find a percentage,
= (50/110) * 100
= 500/11.
Now 45 * 11 = 495,
Mixed fraction form;
= 45 *(5/11).
Total runs = 110,
Total six = 8 * 6 = 48,
Boundaries = 4 * 3 = 12,
110 - 48 + 12 = 50,
To find a percentage,
= (50/110) * 100
= 500/11.
Now 45 * 11 = 495,
Mixed fraction form;
= 45 *(5/11).

Total run = 110.
And runs scored by boundaries and sixes are (3*4=12)+ (8*6=48) = 60,
Rest scores made by running = 110 - 60 = 50 runs.
So percentage of running's score = (running's score / total Score )*100.
= (50/110)*100 = (5/11)*100.
= 500/11,
=> (45/1)+(5/11).
i.e option (B).

Total score = 110,
3 * 4 = 12,
8 * 6 = 48.
Total score - six and four = 110 - 60 = 50,
Percentage = 50/1100 * 100,
= 45(5/11).
3 * 4 = 12,
8 * 6 = 48.
Total score - six and four = 110 - 60 = 50,
Percentage = 50/1100 * 100,
= 45(5/11).

@Kiraa.
Hey, it is not 50/100, it's 50/110.
Because 110 is the total.
Hey, it is not 50/100, it's 50/110.

Total runs = 110.
Total runs from boundaries and sixes = 8 * 6 + 3 * 4 = 60,
Runs made by running between the wickets = 110-60 = 50,
Percentage of run made by running between the wickets = (50/110 * 100)% = 45.45%.
Correct Answer : (C)
