Answer 1

Answer:

Number of hits of Paulo favorite baseball player is 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Average of favorite baseball player = 0.47272727

Number of bats = 55

We need to find the number of hits.

Solution:

Let the number of hits be 'x'.

Now we know that.

Batting average can be calculated by dividing Number of hits from number of bats.

framing in equation form we get;

$\frac{x}{55}=0.47272727$

Multiplying both side by 55 we get;

$\frac{x}{55}\times 55=0.47272727\times 55\\\\x=26$

Hence Number of hits of Paulo favorite baseball player is 26.
