    Tj hit 85% of the balls pitched.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that he hit 17 out of the 20 baseballs pitches to him.

    Thus the 100% is the 20 baseballs pitched. This can be represented in the following table:

    Baseballs Percentage

    20 ⇒ 100%

    and since we want to know what porcentage are the 17 balls hitted, we represent this unknown by x:

    Baseballs Percentage

    20 ⇒ 100%

    17 ⇒ x

    we solve this problem using rule of three, we must multiply the cross quantities in the table (100% by 17) and then divide by the remaining amount (20):

    x = (100%) (17) / 20 = 1700%/20 = 85%

    Tj hit 85% of the balls pitched.
