Answer: Marcus is the better hitter
===========================================================
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll need to compute batting averages for each player.
To compute the batting average, we divide the number of hits over the number of at bats.
For Marcus, his batting average is 37/46 = 0.804 approximately.
Laverne on the other hand has a batting average of roughly 23/31 = 0.742
We see that Marcus has the better batting average because 0.804 is larger than 0.742; it's similar to saying how 804 is larger than 742.
