401 or .401
Putting it into percentage form you will get approximately 61%. To do this you simply divide 17 by 28. So based on percentage I would say that if this were a grade then this is not very good. However if this was say a batting average (in this case the hitter would be hitting .607), then that would be excellent. So to your question of how "good" it is, I'll have to say that it all depends on the circumstances surrounding your data.
The batting average is math because you have to add, subtract and divide. Another one is how far the bases are back and the pitching mound.
It may or may not be correct, depending on the situation. Here are two examples: let's say the average temperature for a given month, in a given city, is known. There is nothing wrong with taking the averages for all the other months (with one caveat), and thus finding the average for the entire year. (The caveat is, the averages must all be based on the same period of time, for example, if one month's average was computed over the last 50 years and another month for the last 80 years, then it is not valid to lump them together, as the data sources are different.) An example where it's not valid to "average an average." Say a baseball player has been playing in the major leagues and you know his batting average for each year in his career. It would not be valid to take the averages for each year and add them together and divide them by the number of years played. This kind of "average of an average" is not valid because the player undoubtedly batted a different number of times each year. In other words, if he batted .300 with 100 at bats in one year, and .200 with 500 at bats another year, his career average is NOT .250, since the number of at bats was not taken into account.
In my experience, "batting 1000" is a very good, positive statement, as it means that you do well every time you try doing something.

the answer is....24
its nearly impossible to have a lower on base percentage then your batting average
Runs batted in is not an average. RBI is a tally of all the runs that a player scored by batting them in. The only averages are on base percentage, batting average, slugging percentage, and fielding percentage.
.300
no way rbi is runs batted in and batting average is your percentage of getting a hit
Jackie Robinson played with the Brooklyn Dodgers from 1947 - 1956, and had a career batting average of .311.

well someone's batting average is how many hits over a thousand. so, put 322/1000 and simplify to get 161/500.
Yes, but they don't affect your batting average.
Yes, but it will not effect his batting average
In 1903, Jack Doscher played in 3 games for the Brooklyn Bridegrooms, batting in all of them. He had 3 at bats, getting 0 hits, for a .000 batting average, with 0 runs batted in. He was walked 0 times. He struck out times.
In 1921, Sweetbread Bailey played in 7 games for the Brooklyn Bridegrooms, batting in all of them. He had 5 at bats, getting 0 hits, for a .000 batting average, with 0 runs batted in. He was walked 1 times. He struck out 4 times.
