Total bases acquired by Hits divided by At Bats.If a player has 1 single, 1 double, 1 triple, 1 Home Run in 20 At Bats his slugging percentage is .500 but his Batting Average is .200
If a player has 4 singles and 2 doubles in 20 At Bats his slugging percentage is .400 but his Batting Average is .300

what???? if you mean baseball you make contact and hit it hardWould you rather have Dice-K or Felix Hernandez?
Only hits count.SLG == (total bases) / (at-bats)
Total bases == singles + 2*doubles + 3*triples + 4*homers;
but, since singles data isn't usually available, this gives the same result:
TB == hits + doubles + 2*triples + 3*HR
