Question

In a cricket match, Ashwin scored 40% of the total
runs scored by his team and Ajith scored 140 runs
which is 22 2% less than Ashwin's score. Find the
total runs scored by Ashwin's team.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Ashwin score x runs

so x-0.222x = 140

0.778x = 140

x is approximately 180

So total runs = 2x+1/2x

= 450 runs

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

let the total score be 100x

so,Ashwin scored would be 40 which is 40% of total score.

Ajith scored 140 which is 200/9 % less than Ashwin score

therefore,

140= 40x - 2/9 of 40x

140= 31.12x

4.5=x

therefore, total score = 100*4.5

=450
