Question

27) Harry made 4 hits in 9 times at-bat. If she keeps the same success level, how many hits should she make in 18 times at bat?

Answer 1

8 hits

Explanation:

The ratio is :

• hits : times-at-bat = 4 : 9

Now, we have 18 times at bat.

Multiply both sides of the ratio with 2 :

• 4 x 2 hits : 9 x 2 times at bat
• 8 hits : 18 times at bat

Harry should make 8 hits in 18 times at bat.
