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

what is the probability that he will get a hit in his next at bat?

The probability of shintaro is 4/12 simplified which is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

It's like saying.. Someone had won 4 races every 12 race

You divide both side of 4/12 till you can't divide anymore

4/12

3/9

2/6

1/3

answer set (b) 0.5, 3/4 80% is in order from least to greatest.  

step-by-step explanation:

in order to compare rational numbers to each other, it is much easier if they are in the same form.   typically, the best form in which to evaluate rational numbers is in decimals.   in order to convert a percent to a decimal, you would divide the given percentage by 100.   you can also accomplish the conversion by moving the decimal point over two places to the left.   for example, the decimal value of 80% is 80/100, or 0.8.   in order to convert a fraction to a decimal, you need to divide the numerator by the denominator.   for example, 3/4 is 0.75.   so, for choice (b) 0.5 3/4 (0.75), 80% (0.8) is the only choice in which the numbers are in order from least to greatest.
