Answer 1

Steps: 2 Marks
Answer: 1 Mark

Number of runs made by Anish in 6 overs
= 42

Number of runs made by Anup in 7 overs
= 63

Number of runs made by Anish in 1 overs
= $\frac{42}{6}$ = 7

Number of runs made by Anup in 1 overs
= $\frac{63}{7}$ = 9

Therefore, Anup made more runs per over.

Ratio of their runs made

$\frac{Anish}{Anup}=\frac{42}{63}=\frac{2}{3}\Rightarrow 2:3$
