Answer: 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.
