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?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Number of runs made by running = 110 - (3 x 4 + 8 x 6)
= 110 - (60)
= 50.
 Required percentage = |

3*4=12,
8*6= 48,
48+12=60.
Total run b/w the wickets 110 - 60 = 50.
Therefore %= 50/110* 100 = 45.454545.
8*6= 48,
48+12=60.
Total run b/w the wickets 110 - 60 = 50.
Therefore %= 50/110* 100 = 45.454545.

@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.

Total runs = 110.
Covered by = 60.
110-60 = 50.
So 50/1100*100.
45*5/11.
Covered by = 60.
110-60 = 50.
So 50/1100*100.
45*5/11.

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.

Total runs = 110.
Runs got by boundary & sixes = 60//[4x3 + 8x6].
Runs got by wickets = 110-60 = 50.
They are asking what percentage 60 is what % of 110.
So, x% of 110 = 60.
x*110/100 = 60.
x = option B.

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.
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.

3 boundaries means 3*4 = 12 runs.
8 sixes means 8*6 = 48 runs.
Totally we have 60 runs only with boundaries and sixes.
Now given runs are 110.
Hence total score did he make by running between the wickets is,
110-60 = 50 runs.
So the percentage is (50/110)*100= 45.454545....%.
We will write this like 45(5/11)%.
8 sixes means 8*6 = 48 runs.
