Question

A batsman scored 124 runs, which included 6 boundaries and 10 sixes. What percentage of his total score did he make by running between the wickets?

A 28(19/31) % Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
B 24(1/31) % Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
C 32(8/31)% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
D 35(3/31)% Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

Solution

The batsman scored from boundaries = 6 × 4 ⇒ 24 runs The batsman scored from sixes = 10 × 6 ⇒ 60 runs Total runs scored by running between the wickets = 124 - (24 + 60) ⇒ 124 - 84 ⇒ 40 runs Required % = (40/124) × 100 = 32(8/31)%
