Answer:

TJ hit 85% of the balls pitched to him.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the total baseball pitches was 20

20 corresponds to 100%, if he hit 17 balls at what percentage this total number corresponds

To solve it we apply a simple rule of three

[tex]20 \longrightarrow 100\%\\17 \longrightarrow x\\x=\frac{(17)(100)}{20} \\x= 85\%[/tex]

17 corresponds to 85% of the total
