Correct question:

The experimental probability that Cindy will catch a fly ball is equal to 3/7. About what percent of the time will Cindy catch a fly ball?

Answer:

42.9%

Explanation:

Given that:

Experimental probability of catching a fly is 3/7

This can be interpreted as : Out of 7 tries, Cindy caught a fly only 3 times

Expressing this as a percentage :

3/7 * 100%

0.4285714 * 100%

42.857%

= 42.9%

Hence, Cindy will catch a fly at about 42.9% of the time
