Answer»

Total runs scored by cricketer = 62

(i) Run scored in 3 sixes = 3×6 = 18

Percentage of runs scored in sixes

\(=\frac{18}{62}\times100\)=29.03%

(ii) Run scored in 8 fours = 8×4 = 32

Percentage of runs scored in fours
\(=\frac{32}{62}\times{100}\) =51.61%

(iii) Run scored in 2 two’s = 2×2 = 4

Percentage of runs scored in two’s \(=\frac{4}{62}\times100\)=6.45%

(iv) Run scored in singles = 8

Percentage of runs scored in singles \(=\frac{4}{62}\times{100}\) =12.9%
