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

@Pavan.
Let x be his sales.
6000 salary out of which 1000 is fixed.
So he earns 5000 out of his sales.
10% commission on his sales.
10*x/100 = 5000.
x = 50000.

Total runs =110.
Boundaries means (4)=>so,
Qus:3 boundaries =3*4=12.
Sixes(6)=>so,
Qus:8 sixes = 8*6=48.
So, boundary + sixes = 12 + 48 = 60.
The, 60 runs is only boundaries and sixes.
But, the question was running b/w the wickets (only scores the runs in running ).
So, total - (boundaries &sixes) = running runs.
So, 110(total) - 60(boundaries &sixes) = 50(running runs).
Here, it is asked percentage :
So, running runs/total *100 = ans.
So, 50/110*100 = 500/11,
And the answer is 45*5/11.
