Kim's softball team is playing in the championship game. They are losing by a score of 17 to 6. There are 4 innings to go. Kim wants to know how many runs her team needs per inning to win the game if the other team does not score. (Each run is worth 1 point.)

Kim's team needs 18 points to win. 18-6=12. Four more innings to go 12/4=3. Kim's team needs a minimum average of 3 runs for each of the next 4 innings to win the game.
