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?
45%
45 5 %
11
54 6 %
11
55%
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 run = 110.
Eight sixes = 48 run,
Three boundaries = 12run,

So, running between wicket=(110-48+12) = 50.
therefore, percentage of 50 run =(50/110)*100 = 45 * 5/11.

The total run is - 110
Boundaries(4's) - 3.
Sixes- 8.

Therefore, (4*3)+(6*8)= 12+48 = 60.

Running between the wickets means (1's or 2's which they get)

Therefore need to know the running b/w wickets:
110 - 60 =50.

And the percentage for running b/w wickets is;

= 50/110 * 100,
= 500/11,
= 45 * 5/11%.

Actually, it converts from 500/11 to 45*(5/11) to a mixed fraction by quotient* remainder/divisor.

For eg: By dividing 500/11 we get quotient =45, remainder=5 divisor =11.
Then we form 45* (5\11).

@Sanchita.

Here, 1 six have 6 runs and 1 boundary means 4 runs.

Total runs 110.

3 boundaries=3*4=12.
8 sixes =8*6=48.

Total score = 110-(12+48)
=110-60.
=50 total runs.

Percentage =50/110 * 100,
= 500/11.
= 45.45 mixed fraction lo rayaga 45*5/11.
