Explanation:

Proportions and Percentages

A proportion is calculated as a division between two numbers. The result can be given as a decimal or as a percentage.

If we want to calculate the percent of a number N with respect to another number M, the formula is:

`\displaystyle p=(N)/(M)*100\%`

Eli had some performances when playing baseball. Struck out 25 times in 75 times at bat, 30 times in 100 at-bats, and 37 times in 120 at-bats.

The total struck outs were: N= 25+30+37=92 and the total at-bats were: 75+100+120=295. The proportion of strikeout ber at-bats is:

`\displaystyle p=(92)/(295)*100\%`

p = 31.19%
