How to calculate run rate in cricket

Case 1 : Basically run rate is calculated by dividing runs scored to number of overs.
  Run rate = Total runs / No.of Overs
  Example : 234 runs in 50 overs
  Run rate = 234 / 50 . Run rate is 4.68 per over

Case 2 : If overs is not an integer (consider 23.4 overs) , then convert into no.of balls
  Run rate = ( Total runs / No.of Balls ) * 6
  Example : 132 runs in 23.4 overs
  23.4 overs i.e. 142 balls (23*6)+4 balls
  Run rate = (132 / 142) * 6 . Run rate is 5.57 per over
