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

Actually, it converts from 500/11 to 45*(5/11) to a mixed fraction by quotient* remainder/divisor.

For eg: By dividing 500/11 we get quotient =45, remainder=5 divisor =11.
Then we form 45* (5\11).

Total runs 110.

3 boundaries=3*4=12.
8 sixes =8*6=48.

Total score = 110-(12+48)
=110-60.
=50 total runs.

Percentage =50/110 * 100,
= 500/11.
= 45.45 mixed fraction lo rayaga 45*5/11.

Total run = 110.

No of sixes = 8,
Runs by 6= 8*6=48,
No of four =3,
Runs by four =4 * 3=12,
Runs between the wickets =110-60=50,
%of runs are 50 divided by 110 *100, = we will get the answer.

3 boundaries = 3*4=12,
8 sixes = 8*6=48,
=> 48+12=60 (runs scored with the help of boundaries),
runs scored by running b/w wickets = 110-60=50,
%runs scored by running = (50/110)*100.

@seshadri,
remember one thing
any fraction can be written in the following format

quotient *(remainder/divisor)

we get fraction as
500/11

just convert it into above format
thats it

800 is how much % of 7200?
800*%/100 = 7200.

By solving we get 800%.
And by using above method.

800/7200*100=11.11111111.
Which will be the correct method and what is the answer.

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.

See follow like this:

Given that;

Total runs = 110,
Total six = 8 * 6 = 48,
Boundaries = 4 * 3 = 12,
110-48 + 12 = 50.
Now find
110= 100%.
50=?
50/110 * 100 = 45 5/11.

Total run = 110.
Eight sixes = 48 run,
Three boundaries = 12run,

So, running between wicket=(110-48+12) = 50.
therefore, percentage of 50 run =(50/110)*100 = 45 * 5/11.

Runs=110.
(Boundaries)fours = 4 * 3 = 12,
Sixes=8*6=48,
total=48+12=60,
110-60 = 50,
50/110 = 5/11,
5/11*100(%) = 500/11,
45*11= 495,
Balance = 5,
= 45 5/11.
