Question

Fredericka can make 65 percent of her shots from the free throw line if she shoots 75 times how many shoots can she expect to make

Answer 1

Answer:

48 shots.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find 65 percent of the total 75 shots the takes.

65% is written as 0.65.

We multiply 0.65 to the total (75).

$0.65 \times 75$

So we get 48.75.

This answer means she is guaranteed to make 48 shots. But the .75 that remains, shows that she didn't make enough attempts to have one more guaranteed shot.

So, we must ignore the decimal.

Meaning, Fredericka should expect to make 48 shots.
