Question:

Sachin scored 120 runs, which included 6 boundaries and 4 sixes. What percentage of his total score did he make by running between the wickets?

Options:

$46\frac{4}{9}$ %

$33\frac{1}{3}$ %

60 %

45 %

Correct Answer:

60 %

Explanation:

Run made by boundaries or sixes = 6 × 4 + 4 × 6 = 48 runs

Remaining runs = 120 - 48 = 72 runs

Percentage of runs scored by running = \(\frac{72}{120}\) × 100 = 60%
