Answer 2

A 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:Here’s one way to solve this problem.

Write sixty percent as a fraction having a denominator of one hundred.

Now, change sixty-hundredths to an equivalent fraction having a denominator of twenty, the total number of pitches.

Do this by dividing the numerator and the denominator by five.

Then, simplify the fraction twelve-twentieths by dividing the numerator and the denominator by four.

So, Lenora hit three-fifths of the pitches.
