Study the following graph carefully and answer the question below-
The table given below gives the percentage of total runs scored by a particular player in the match. The table also provides the boundary count of the players in the match.
(boundaries represent 4 runs, and there are no 6's in the match)
If WASHI scored 36 runs in the match, how many runs did the team score without considering boundaries ?
Solution
We are given the score of WASHI as 36.
The percentage of runs scored by WASHI is 9%
$$\dfrac{9}{100}\ \times\ total\ score\ =\ 36$$
$$\ total\ score\ = 400$$
Number of boundaries scored by the whole team = 23 + 6 + 1 + 2 + 5 + 5 = 42
Score attained through boundaries = 42 * 4 = 168
The score without boundaries = 400 - 168 = 232
The correct answer is option A.
