Question

In a volleyball game, Caroline served the ball over the net 16 out of 20 times. What percent did she not make her serve over the net?​

Answer 1

Number of times Caroline served over the net = 16 times
Number of times Caroline did not serve over the net = 20 - 16 = 4 times

Hence, Percentage of her incorrect serves is given by:

`\% = (no \: of \: incorrect \: serves)/(total \: no \: of \: serves) * 100`

`\% = (4)/(20) * 100 \\ \\ \% = 20\%`
Caroline did not make 20% of her serves
