Q: Weigh it down with a brick, stone, or other heavy object. Keep the soil moist. Check again in another week for roots. Be careful not to cut the roots of the cutting or the mother plant with your spade. Make sure the plant will have partial shade.
A: Bend a low branch on a hydrangea bush so that it touches the soil. Keep the branch in place. Continue to water the plant as normal. Remove the brick or stone and check the branch for roots. Replace the brick or stone if roots aren't present, or if they haven't reached the soil. Cut branch from the mother plant. Dig up the rooted section from the ground. Transplant to the location where you want the hydrangea to grow.

Q: When picking up food with your chopsticks, make sure the ends do not cross over one another and make an "X". This will make it very difficult to pick up food. If your chopsticks cross at the ends, you're gripping your food too tightly. Let go of the food and try to grab it again more gently.
A: Avoid letting the chopsticks cross while grasping food.

Q: Find the center of the watermelon and cut through the fruit at the mid-point.
A: Cut the watermelon in half.

Q: Hits (also called base hits) are simply the sum of singles, doubles, triples, and home runs. This statistic is easy to find online for professional players. You can use the statistics for a season, a whole career, or any other period of time you're interested in. Just make sure all your statistics come from the same time frame. This is the number of times the player has made an attempt at an hit. This does not include walks, hits by pitch, or sacrifices, since these do not reflect the batter's offensive skill. The answer tells you the battering average, or the fraction of the time that a batter turned an at-bat attempt into a successful hit. For example, if a player had 70 Hits and 200 At-Bats, his Batting Average is 70 200 = 0.350. You can read a batting average of 0.350 as "this player would expect to get 350 hits in 1000 at-bats." Batting averages are almost always rounded this way. When a baseball fan mentions a batting average of "three hundred," she means 0.300. You can calculate batting averages to four or more decimal places, but this doesn't have much use beyond breaking ties.
A:
Find the player's hits. Find the player's at-bats. Divide the number of hits by the number of at-bats. Round to the third decimal place.
