Ricky. How many hits did each player have?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Pedro had 1,479 base hits and Ricky had 1,200 base hits :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rick had 1,202 hits and Pedro had 1,477.

Let's put this into steps:

⇒ 2679-275=

⇒2404

⇒2402/2=

⇒1202

We have Ricky's number of hits. Now we keep going for Pedro's.

⇒1202 +275=

⇒1477

You can tell if it's their numbers by adding them together and getting 2679 back.

Hence, Ricky had 1,202 hits and Pedro had 1,477.
