Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The batting average formula is:
Batting Average = Total number of successful hits / Total number of times at bat

In this context:
Total number of successful hits = Number of orders written = 60
Total number of times at bat = Number of calls made = 150

Therefore, the batting average is:
Batting Average = 60/150
Batting Average = 0.4
Batting Average = 40%

The closest option to 40% is C) 400, which means the sales rep's batting average is around 40%.
