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.

50/110 * 100 = 45.
In this way 45 is the correct answer.
How the answer will be 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.

The answer given is incorrect. The correct answer is 40%.

Total runs=110.
No. of sixes= 8,
Runs by sixes=6*8=54,
No. of fours=3,
Runs scored by fours=4*3=12,
Runs between the wickets=110-(54+12)=110-66=44,
% runs scored between wickets= (44÷110)*100=40% ans.
