Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

We are told that a baseball player got 69 hits out of 100 at-bats.

Required;

We are required to calculate the:

(1) Fraction

(2) Percentage

Of times that the player did not get a hit.

Step-by-step solution;

To solve this math problem, we would have to determine how many times out of a hundred that the player DID NOT get a hit.

This is shown below;


\begin{gathered} Total=100 \\ Hits=69 \\ Missed=31 \end{gathered}

The number of misses as a fraction would be;


Fraction=(misses)/(total)
Fraction=(31)/(100)
Percentage=(31)/(100)*(100)/(1)
Percentage=31\%

Therefore;

ANSWER:


\begin{gathered} (A) \\ (31)/(100) \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} (C) \\ 31\% \end{gathered}
