Question

Ben strikes out 90 times in 340 at bat. What percent of the time does Ben strike out

Answer 1

Answer:

$percentage=26.47\%$

Step-by-step explanation:

$Ben\ strikes\ in\ 340\ efforts=90\\\\So\ fraction\ he\ can\ strike\ 1\ effort=\frac{number\ of\ times\ he\ strikes}{total\ efforts}\\\\So\ fraction\ he\ can\ strike\ in\ 1\ effort=\frac{90}{340}\\\\So\ fraction\ he\ can\ strike\ in\ 1\ effort=\frac{9}{34}\\\\He\ can\ strike\ in\ 100\ efforts=\frac{9}{34}\times 100\\\\percentage=26.47\%$
