Karen batting average was 0.444 She was at bat 45 times.how many hits did she get?

Sagot :

Karen got an average of 0.444 hits out of 45 bats.
We need to find the number of hits did Karen got.
=> 45 bats all in all
=> 0.444 average hits
x = how many hit did she get
Now, let’s multiply the total bats to Karen’s average hit:
=> 45 x 0.444 …. (repeating decimals)
=>  20
Therefore, Karen hit 20 times out of 45 bats
Let’s check our answer:
=> 20 / 45
=> 0.44444…. (repeating decimals)





we know that

Karen batting average was [tex] 0.444 [/tex]

[tex] 0.444 [/tex] is equal to [tex] \frac{44.4}{100} =44.4\% [/tex]

so

by proportion

[tex] \frac{44.4}{100} =\frac{x}{45} \\\\ 100*x= 45*44.4\\\\ x=\frac{45*44.4}{100} [/tex]

[tex] x=19.98\ hits [/tex]

therefore

the answer is

[tex] 20\ hits [/tex]
