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?

An average of every 3 game Jackie Robinson hits a baseball. Hitting a ball during his career is 0.31.

Explanation:

Mean is the measure of central tendency. It gives a single value of a whole data. Average time Jackie hits a baseball is 3. Total number of times a person comes to bat/hit a baseball. Probability is an uncertainty principle. There are number of outcomes in probability. example toss a coin, role a dice, next rainy day. There three types of probability. Classical, Empirical and subjective. Experimental probability is an event of out come. Probability is always between 0 to 1. It can never go beyond 1. Formula for experimental is total events / number of trials. Hit ball by batting times.
