45 * (5/11)% = 45.45% then why option B and why not option A?

Total score 110.
3 boundaries = (3 * 4) =12.
8 sixes = 8 * 6 = 48.
12 + 48 = 60.
Remaining runs (110 - 60) scored by running.
So % is 50/110 * 100 = 500/11 = option b.
3 boundaries = (3 * 4) =12.
8 sixes = 8 * 6 = 48.
12 + 48 = 60.
Remaining runs (110 - 60) scored by running.
So % is 50/110 * 100 = 500/11 = option b.

@Vansh.
8 comes because they had given 8 six so we multiply with 8.
