If Jackie Robinson hit a baseball 1,518 times and came to bat 4,877 times during his career, what was his batting average? In other words, what was the experimental probability of him hitting the ball during his career?

0.311

Explanation:

Given : The number of times Jackie Robinson hit a baseball = 1,518

The number of times he came to bat = 4877

Now , the his batting average = (number of times he hit a baseball) ÷ (number of times he came to bat )

=(1518)÷ (4877)

=0.311256920238 ≈0.311 [Round off to the nearest hundredth]

∴ His batting average  = 0.311

Hence, the experimental probability of him hitting the ball during his career is 0.311.
