7.EE.B.3

Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies.

In baseball, a batting average is the ratio of the number of hits a player has to the number of at bats. It is typically written as a decimal rounded to the nearest thousandth. A player's batting average changes throughout the season as they have more at-bats.

Look at the back of a baseball card to see the player's career statistics.

Suppose a baseball player had a hits in b at-bats. Explain how to find the baseball player's batting average.
