Baseball - Part A
Rodney played in a baseball tournament.
During the first game, Rodney attempted to hit the ball 6 times, but only hit the ball 4 times.
During the second game. Rodney attempted to hit the ball 2 more times than the first game,
and hit the ball a total of 4 times.
In the first game, what is the ratio of Rodney's actual hits to Rodney's attempts to hit the ball?

Answer 1

8:8 or 1:1

Explanation:

You need to add 6 and 2 together because those are the two numbers of times Rodney attempted to hit the ball. You should get 8. You also, need to add 4 and 4 together because those are the times Rodney actually hit the ball. You should also get 8. To get the ratio you need to compare the two outcomes and put them into this format: 8:8. But since they're both the same number, that means you can simplify it. Just divide them both by 8 to get 1:1. I hope this helps, Brandon!
