Answer:

John attempted 500 passes this year.

Explanation:

We know that John completed 350 passes which is 70% of all passes.

To know the total number of passes he did, we just need to use the rule of three. If 350 passes represents 70%, how many passes would represent 100%?


100\%(350)/(70\%)=500

Therefore, John attempted 500 passes, from which he completed 350 that represents a 70%.
