    A baseball player gets 7 hits in the first 15 games of the season. If he continues hitting at the same rate, how many hits will he get in the first 45 games?

    Let's find the proportion of hits to games. Using h as the number of hits in 45 games, we have:
    7/15 = h/45

    Using our proportion calculator, we get h = 21
