Everett made 3/5 of the baskets he shot.  Suppose he shot 60 baskets, how many did he make?

3/4=x/60 You multiply 4•15 to get 60 so then you would multiply 3•15 so he made 45 out of the 60 shots

Multiply\ fraction\ by\ amount\ of\ baskets\ which\ he\ shot\\\\\ Everet's\ baskets=(3)/(5)*60=(3*60)/(5)=36\\\\\ Everett\ made\ 36\ baskets.
