Number of runs made by running = 110 - (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)

Just we have used the formula.

50 runs are scored by running out of total score 110.

And as we have asked the ans. Should be in percentage.

Any quantity when multiplied by 100, we get the value in percentage.

Why we have to divide by 110 & multiply by 100?

How 45 came?

110 - (3 * 4 + 8 * 6)/110 * 100 = 500/11.
