@All.
Explanation: out of 110 runs with bound and 8 sixes : 3 boundaries + 8 sixes = 60 runs with bound and 8sixes rest are runs with running between wickets.
110-60 = 50 (now they ask for the percentage for 50 with 110), that is 50% of 110, then
50/100 * 110 = 45.4% which is the correct answer.

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

Why we have to divide by 110 & multiply by 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

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
