Question

Daniel made 6 out of 15 free throw shots. About how many out of the next 10 free throw shots would you expect him to make

Answer 1

Answer: 4

Step-by-step explanation: first do 6 divided by 15 to get .4 (this just knows the percent he didn't make)

Then do .4 times 10 = 4

I had this question on a quiz btw :)

Answer 2

6÷15= 0.4= his percentage at the line
0.4×100%= 40%
(x represents how much he makes in 10 shots) x/10 = 40/100 (Percent from the line)
cross multiply 100x=400
isolate x
100x÷100= 400÷100
x=4
I predict that daniel will make 4 shots out of ten
