Question

Raphael had 5 hits in 7 at bats. If he continues this pattern, how many hits will he have in 210 at bats?

Answer 1

So it tell us that he is able to get 5 hits out of 7 and to find how much he could make if 210 chances
$\frac{5}{7} = \frac{x}{210}$

We solve what can be solved
$0.7 = \frac{x}{210}$

Then we leave our variable alone
$0.7 *210=x$

Last we solve
$x=147$

In this case we can see that he could make 147 hits out of 210 bats.
