Question

emily made 75% of the baskets that she attempted. if she made 9 baskets, how many attempts did she make?

Answer 1

1.) 9/x = 75/100
9 out of how many, so 9 over x
and 75 over 100 is the same as 75%

2.) 75x = 900
cross multiply

3.) x=12

So 9 out of 12 baskets in all.

Answer 2

75% = 9
25% =3
100%=12
12 attempts
