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?
Explanation
3 boundaries = 3 × 4 = 12 runs
8 sixes = 8 × 6 = 48 runs
Runs from boundaries and sixes = 12 + 48 = 60
Runs by running = 110 – 60 = 50 runs
Percentage = (50 / 110) × 100 = 45.45...% = 45 5/11%
