\n" ); document.write( "batting average=(hits)/(times batted)
\n" ); document.write( "your batting average =.300
\n" ); document.write( "times batted=400
\n" ); document.write( "hits=x
\n" ); document.write( "\".300=x%2F400\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28400%29%28.300%29=400x%2F400\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"120=x\"
\n" ); document.write( "check:
\n" ); document.write( "\".300=120%2F400\"
\n" ); document.write( "\".300=.300\" We're right!!!
