the batting average is found by dividing the number of hits by the number of times a batter was at bat\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "and in this case we will find how many hits will he get in \"400\" times at bat using proportion\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"216%3A81=400%3Ax\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"216x=400%2A81\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"216x=32400\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=32400%2F216\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"x=150\"\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so, he will he get \"x=150\" hits in \"400\" times at bat\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "
