Question

To have a batting averages over .500,how many hits in 45 times at bat would Rail and Karen need?

Answer 1

A batting average is simply the ratio of hits/at-bats. So if Karen were up to bat 1,000 times and she got a hit 444 times, that makes her batting average 444/1,000=.444 or another way to solve this problem is to multiply 0.500(0.5)to 45 and you would get 22.5. Hope I helped!
