@Jay. Answer to wheat problem.
Let x kg of 4.5 and y kg of 5.25 Rs variety.
So,
4.5x+5.25y = 5(x+y).
on solving we get,
0.25y = 0.5x.
(x/y) = 25/50.
x:y = 1:2.

In a fraction, the number is increased by 20% and the denominator is decreased by 10% then the value of the fraction becomes 5/7. Then find the original fraction?

@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.
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.

(50*100)/110=500/11 are you agree with this, then
45*11=495 where 11 is denominator then by adding 5 to 495 we will get 500, then keep the denominator same.

Total 110-((3*4)+(8*6)) = 110-60 = 50.
50 runs he got only by running between the wickets.
So percentage is (50/110)*100 = 45.5%.
Answer is 45.5%.
50 runs he got only by running between the wickets.

50/110*100.
So ans will be like 500/11,
500 is not divisible by 11.
So we write a mixed fraction,
That means 45 *11=495 remaining 5 will be there.

500/11
Hence we can write 500/11 = 45*5/11.
45
-----
11 ! 500
! 44
!----
60
55
-----
5
Hence we can write 500/11 = 45*5/11.

110 out of 100.
50 out of ?.
We can cut all '0's cross way (X) or up and down (/).
The Answer may come like 5/11.
So we can conclude 45 * 5/11.

Is it just me or is this question impossible for those who have no knowledge on cricket terminology? i.e., 1 boundary means a score of 4?

= 110-(3*4+8*6).
= 110-60.
= 50.
= 50/110*100.
= 5/11*100.
Percentage will be calculate first 5 * 100/11.
= 500/11,
= 45.45,
= 45.5/11.
= 110-60.
= 50.
= 50/110*100.
= 5/11*100.

= 500/11,
= 45.45,
= 45.5/11.
