Answer 1

The calculations involve basic arithmetic such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to determine the total statistical figures for baseball players and to calculate averages and percentages.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To find the total bases collected by Henry Aaron, Stan Musial, and Willie Mays, we perform the following operation: 6,856 + 6,134 + 6,066 = 19,056 total bases.

2) To find out how many more at-bats Pete Rose had compared to Henry Aaron, we subtract Aaron's at-bats from Rose's: 14,053 - 12,364 = 1,689 more at-bats.

3) To get the total number of home runs hit by Henry Aaron, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays, we add their home runs together: 755 + 714 + 660 = 2,129 home runs in total.

4) For Pete Rose's average hits per year, we divide his career hits by the number of years he played: 4,256 ÷ 24 ≈ 177 hits per year.

5) To find out how many tickets Bank One Ballpark could sell for 81 games, we multiply the seating capacity by the number of games: 48,500 x 81 = 3,928,500 tickets.

6) To find the difference in strikeouts between Nolan Ryan and Steve Carlton, we subtract Carlton's strikeouts from Ryan's: 5,714 - 4,136 = 1,578 more strikeouts.

7) To determine how many groups of 20 fans can fit into Dodger Stadium, we divide the stadium's capacity by 20: 56,000 ÷ 20 = 2,800 groups.

8) To find out how many fewer walks Mickey Mantle had compared to Babe Ruth, we subtract Mantle's walks from Ruth's: 2,062 - 1,733 = 329 fewer walks.

9) To calculate Ty Cobb's average number of hits per year, we divide his total career hits by the number of years he played: 4,189 ÷ 24 ≈ 175 hits per year.

10) The St. Louis Cardinals' winning percentage is found by dividing the number of World Series wins by the number of appearances: (9 ÷ 15) x 100% = 60% winning percentage.
