Answer:

Total runs scored by cricketer = 62 runs

(i)Runs scored in 3 sixes = 3×6

= 18

Percentage of runs scored in sixes = (18/62) × 100

= 29.03%

(ii)Runs scored in 8 fours = 8×4

= 32

Percentage of runs scored in fours = (32/62) × 100

= 51.61%

(iii)Runs scored in 2 two’s = 2×2

= 4

Percentage of runs scored in two’s = (4/62) × 100

= 6.45%

Percentage of runs scored in singles = (8/62) × 100

= 12.9%
