Question

Mar in was a bat and hit 7 out 8 balls. How can you find his batting precentage

Answer 1

Divide 7 by 8 then multiply what you get by 100.

Answer 2

Batting percentage can be determined by number of hits divided by total balls faced multiplied by 100. And batting percentage of Marin was 87.5%.

Solution:

Given that Marin was batting,

Number of balls hit by Marin = 7

Number of ball faced by Marin = 8

Need to find batting percentage.

`\begin{array}{l}{\text { batting percentage }} =\frac{\text {number of balls hit by martin}}{\text {number of balls faced by martin}} * 100}\end{array}`

On substituting given values in above formula we get

`batting percentage = (7)/(8) * 100 = (700)/(8) = 87.5` %

Hence batting percentage can be determined by number of hits divided by total balls faced multiplied by 100. And batting percentage of Marin was 87.5%.
