Question

In a cricket match, Sachin was batting at 58 runs with 7 doubles, 4 singles and the remaining boundaries. How many boundaries did he hit?

Answer 1

Runs scored by Sachin = 58

Runs scored by boundaries = 58 - (1× 4 + 2×7) = 40

For 4 runs, he has to hit 1 boundary

For 1 run, he has to hit $\frac{1}{4}$ boundary$\frac{1}{4}$

For 40 runs, she has to hit $\frac{40}{4}$ = 10 boundaries
