Question 1101945: if a baseball player has a batting average of 0.250, his ratio of hits to at-bats is 250 / 1000. How many base hits would a player with a batting average of 0.250 have if he had 560 at-bats?

he gets 250 hits for every 1000 times at bat.

that's a ratio of 250 / 1000 = .250

if he has 560 at bats, the number of hits would be equal to .250 * 560 = 140 based on this ratio.

140 / 560 = .250.
