Answer 1

10:31

Explanation:

Given: A baseball player recorded
`60` hits in
`186` at-bats.

To Find: ratio of hits to at-bats.

Solution:

Total number of hits recorded by baseball player
`=60`

Total number of at-bats
`=186`

Now,

ratio of hits to at-bats
`=\frac{\text{total number of hits recorded}}{\text{total number of at-bats}}`

putting values,

ratio of hits to at-bats
`=(60)/(186)`

`=(10)/(31)`

`=10:31`

Hence the ratio of hits to at-bats is
`10:31`
