∙ 13y agoA player's slugging percentage is defined as the number of bases he reaches per hit he gets. It measures the hitters power and ability to drive the Baseball.
The equation used looks like this:
SLG%=Total bases/At bats
For example if during a game, a hitter gets a home run(4 bases), and two doubles(2 bases each) in four at bats, his slugging percentage would be:
SLG%=4+2+2/4
=2.00
If he gets 2 singles in 3 at bats, his SLG% is:
SLG=2 /3
=0.66

∙ 11y agoYou take the total number of bases reached by getting a hit and divide by the number of at bats. Single is 1 base double is 2 bases triple 3 bases and home run 4 bases. Walks are not counted. Short example would be if you hit 10 doubles (20 bases) and you had 25 official at bats then your slugging % is .800 %.
