Batting Average Calculator
Divide one aggregate hit count by one aggregate official at-bat count, not plate appearances. Combine periods before entry if a multi-game average is needed.
How to use this calculator
Enter aggregate hits and aggregate official at-bats for the intended sample.
Review official scoring, at-bat exclusions such as walks and sacrifices, stat corrections, sample period, and display convention.
Read numeric batting average, conventional three-digit AVG display, and hit percentage.
Formula
Batting average AVG = hits ÷ at-bats. Combined AVG = total hits across periods ÷ total official at-bats, customarily displayed to three decimal places.
Worked example
A batter with 45 hits in 150 official at-bats has AVG = 45 ÷ 150 = .300.
Assumptions and limits
- Entered at-bats already follow the governing scorekeeping rules; the calculator does not determine whether a plate appearance counts as an at-bat.
- Batting Average Calculator treats the entered values as estimates and does not infer missing project, account, or personal details.
- Calculations retain working precision except where the cited method requires an intermediate rounding step; displayed values are then formatted separately. Source rules and dated rates must be rechecked when they change.
