Answer 1

I think it would be 19.2% if you rounded it would be 19%

Answer 2

Answer:

The answer is 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Duval went to bat 80 times during a baseball season.

In the first half of the season he had 15 hits. In the second half of the season he had 9 hits.

Now total hits in all = $15+9 =24$

Now, to get the percent of the time, Duval get a hit during the entire season, we will do the following calculation:

$\frac{24}{80}\times100= 30$ percent or 30%.
