Question

Bridget and Jennie are the top two scorers on the girls basketball team. For every 9 points Jennie scores, Bridget scores 5 points. If Bridget scores 140 points, how many points does Jennie score?

Answer 1

252

Explanation:

Bridget / 5 = Jennie / 9

We can divide Bridget's score by 5 to find the number of 'five points' she scored. We can then multiply that by 9 to find the amount of points Jennie scored.

B / 5 = 28 * 9 = 252
