Question

A baseball player reaches first base 3 out of 10 times he is at bat. If the baseball player bats 80 times, about how many times will the player reach first base?

Answer 1

I think the answer is 24.

Explanation:

I think the answer is 24 because if the baseball player hit the bat and ran the base 3 out of 10 times, then you would multiply 8 x 3 to get 24 out of 80. I don't know if this is the correct answer, this is just what I think it may be.
