(10+X)/(45+X)=.5 CROSS MULTIPLY
\n" ); document.write( ".5(45+X)=10+X
\n" ); document.write( "22.5+.5X=10+X
\n" ); document.write( "X-.5X=22.5-10
\n" ); document.write( ".5X=12.5
\n" ); document.write( "X=12.5/.5
\n" ); document.write( "X=25 CONSECUTIVE AT HITS WILL RAISE THE AVERAGE TO 500
\n" ); document.write( "PROOF
