Question

    In a T20 match, the total runs scored by five batsmen is

    400. The ratio of runs scored by Williamson to Taylor is 11:9. If 2/5th of the total runs are scored by both of them together, find the ratio of runs scored by Williamson to the total runs scored by the five batsmen.
    A 13:30 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 11:50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 53:18 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 23:70 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the runs scored by Williamson and Taylor be ‘11x’ and ‘9x’, respectively. So, 11x + 9x = 2/5 × 400 20x = 160, x = 8 Runs scored by Williamson = 11x = 88 Required ratio = 88: 400 = 11:50
