Answer:
Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406
Step-by-step explanation:
Anne hits 65 bases out of 160 at - bats.
Beth's betting average = 0.399
Collin's hit = 40%
Now, we need to convert all the three hitting rates into same parameters to compare them with each other.
Average hit rate of Anne = [tex]\frac{\textrm{Total numberof base}}{\textrm{Total number of at - bats}}[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{65}{160} = 0.406[/tex]
⇒The betting average of Anne = 0.406
Now, The hit - rate of Collin = 40%
Converting the percentage rate into decimal, we get the hit rate of Collin
= [tex]\frac{40}{100} = 0.40[/tex]
Hence, we get that Hitting Average of :
Anne = 0.406, Beth = 0.3999 and Collin = 0.400
Hence, from the above data Anne is the best hitter as she has the best hitting average of 0.406.
