According to the question---- Zaheer concedes = 27 runs in 9 overs 2 balls = 27 (56 balls) = 27/56 ; Harbhajan concedes = 31 runs in 10 overs = 31 (60 balls) = 31/60. Now, in order to compare the two fractions, we require a common denominator by finding the L.C.M. of the two denominators, which will give us ---- 4×7×3×2×5 = 840. Therefore, 31/56 = 405/840 ; and, 31/60 = 434/840. On comparing each other, we find 405/840 < 434/840 => Zaheer's performance is better than Harbhajan's.
