Playing skee ball 25% of your shots were worth 50 points 40% were worth 40 points, and the rest were worth 30 points. What is the ratio of 30 points shot to 40 points shot? simplfy

Answer 1

7/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the percentage of shots that are worth 30 points. This percentage can be calculated as

100% - 25% - 40% = 35%

Because 100% is the total, 25% were worth 50 points and 40% were worth 40 points.

Now, we know that 35% is worth 30 points and 40% is worth 40 points. So, the ratio of 30 points shot to 40 points shot is

35/40 = 7/8

Therefore, the answer is 7/8
