Answer:

Michelle has a higher batting average with 0.475

Step-by-step explanation:

Batting average is equal to the number of hits divided by the number of times at bat:

First, we have to know the batting average of both players:

Eva:

Hits = 42

Times at bat = 90

Now we divide to get the batting average:

42/90 = 0.466

Michelle:

Hits = 38

Times at bat = 80

Now we divide to get the batting average:

38/80 = 0.475

Michelle has a batting average of 0.475 compared to Eva's which is a 0.466, so Michelle's has a higher batting average.
