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

Express (5% of 3.75+10% of 7.25) in decimals.

@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.

@Nisha kadam.

Here we need to find runs percentage of the total run, that is why we have to subtract from the total.

Given that;

Total runs = 110,
Total six = 8 * 6 = 48,
Boundaries = 4 * 3 = 12,
110 - 48 + 12 = 50,
To find a percentage,
= (50/110) * 100
= 500/11.
Now 45 * 11 = 495,
Mixed fraction form;
= 45 *(5/11).

Total Runs 110.
3 boundaries = 3 * 4 = 12.
8 * 6 = 48,
12 + 48 = 60.

Between wickets is 110-60 = 50.
Now they have asked me to find the % of 110 = 50
Simply add 2 zeros to 50 and divide by 110

eg: %10 of x =a.
=>a00/10 find x.
eg: x% of 100 = a.
=>a00/100 find x.

x% of 110 = 50,
=>5000/110= 45.45.

Yes, the 45(5/11) is the right answer.
