In baseball, shintaro had 4 hits in his last 12 times at bat.

if shintaro has 36 at bats in the next week, about how many hits will he have?

For this case we can propose a rule of three according to the Shontaro base performance.

4 hits ------------> 12 times at bat

x -------------------> 36 times at bat

Where "x" represents the number of hits he will have the following week, based on his previous performance.

So, Shintaro will have 12 hits in 36 times at bat

Shintaro will have 12 hits in 36 times at bat
