Solution

Total runs scored by a cricketer =120

(i)Number of runs from sixes (6's)=20% of 120=20×120100=24

Number of 6's =246=4

(ii)Number of runs from fours (4's)=30% of 120

=30×120100=36

Number of 4's =364=9

(iii)Number of runs from 2's =25% of 120

=25×120100=30

Number of 2's =302=15

(iv)Number of singles =120-(24+36+30)

=120-90=30

Percentage =30×100120=25%
