This problem is a continuation of Problem 30, Section
15.2. A player's batting average really isn't simply the
ratio h/a . It is the value of h/a rounded to the nearest
thousandth. It is possible that a batting average could
be raised or lowered, but the reported batting average
might remain the same when rounded. Write a paper on this
topic.
