Verified Answer :

Karen got an average of 0.444 hits out of 45 bats.

We need to find the number of hits did Karen got.

=> 45 bats all in all

=> 0.444 average hits

x = how many hit did she get

Now, let’s multiply the total bats to Karen’s average hit:

=> 45 x 0.444 …. (repeating decimals)

=>  20

Therefore, Karen hit 20 times out of 45 bats

Let’s check our answer:

=> 20 / 45

=> 0.44444…. (repeating decimals)





we know that

Karen batting average was \(0.444\)

\(0.444\) is equal to \(\frac{44.4}{100} =44.4\%\)

so

by proportion

\(\frac{44.4}{100} =\frac{x}{45} \\\\ 100*x= 45*44.4\\\\ x=\frac{45*44.4}{100}\)

\(x=19.98\ hits\)

therefore

the answer is

\(20\ hits\)
