Answer 1

Sasha threw more accurately in Round 2 because she hit the target on a higher percentage of her throws.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Step 1: Calculate the percentage accuracy for both Round 1 and Round 2

For Round 1, the percentage accuracy will be

`\begin{gathered} \text{percentage accuracy=}\frac{Number\text{ of targetS }}{Number\text{ of throws}}*100\text{ \%} \\ \text{percentage accuracy=}(9)/(12)*100\text{ \%} \\ \text{percentage accuracy= }(900)/(12)\text{ \%} \\ \text{Percentage accuracy=75 \%} \end{gathered}`

For round 1, the percentage accuracy is 75%

For Round 2,the percentage accuracy will be

`\begin{gathered} \text{Percentage accuracy=}\frac{\text{Number of targets}}{Number\text{ of throws}}*100\text{ \%} \\ \text{percentage accuracy=}(16)/(20)*100\text{ \%} \\ \text{percentage accuracy=}(1600)/(20)\text{ \%} \\ \text{percentage accuracy=80 \%} \end{gathered}`

For Round 2, the percentage accuracy is 80%

Therefore, with the calculation above we can conclude that on the comparison,

Sasha threw more accurately in Round 2 because she hit the target on a higher percentage of her throws.

Hence,

The correct answer is OPTION D
