    The answer is A ...357 +.372 +.350 +.349 + x = 1.754;.326

    x1 - average of 1999 Nomar Garciaparra Boston

    x2 - average of 2000 Nomar Garciaparra Boston

    x3 - average of 2001 Ichiro Suzuki Seattle

    x4 - average of Manny Ramirez Boston

    x - average of 2003 Bill Mueller Boston

    The sum of these five batting averages is 1.754:

    x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x = 1.754

    From the table:

    x1 = 0.357

    x2 = 0.372

    x3 = 0.350

    x4 = 0.349

    x = ?

    0.357 + 0.372 + 0.350 + 0.349 + x = 1.754

    1.428 + x = 1.754

    x = 1.754 - 1.428

    x = 0.326
