Sagot :

Using proportions, it is found that he can be expected to hit 36 home runs during the 162 game season.

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, the player hits 10 home runs in 45 games, hence the proportion is:

p = 10/45.

Then, in 162 games, the amount is:

HR = 10/45 x 162 = 36.
