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 |

3*4=12,
8*6= 48
48+12=60
Total run b/w the wickets 110 - 60=50
Therefore %= 50/110* 100 = 45.454545
8*6= 48
48+12=60
Total run b/w the wickets 110 - 60=50
Therefore %= 50/110* 100 = 45.454545

In order to find the percentage of runs scored by running the wickets.
see the total runs scored by the batsman is 110.
runs scored by fours and sixes is 4*3+6*8=60
then runs scored by running b/w wickets = 50(total runs(110) - runs scored by fours and sixes(60))
for 110 runs if he scored 50 runs by running b/w wickets
then for 100 how much
this can written in the ratio form as 110:100::50:X
then x=(100*50)/110
solving we get the answer as 500/11
converting in mixed fraction we 45*5/11.
i hope u understood.. have a nice day.

Why we need to divide 50/110?

Runs=110;
fours=4*3=12;,sixes=8*6=48;
total=48+12=60;
110-60=50;
100=110
?=50;
45.51..
fours=4*3=12;,sixes=8*6=48;
total=48+12=60;
110-60=50;
100=110
?=50;
45.51..

When we divide 500 by 11 then we get 45 as answer and 5 as remainder so B is the answer.

Just 50/100 is not correct?

As 2*1/2 =5/2
Similarly 500/11=45* 5/11 that is
( (45*11)+5)/11
Similarly 500/11=45* 5/11 that is
( (45*11)+5)/11
