Question

Madeline found that the experimental probability of her scoring from a

three-point line in a basketball game is 1
10, or 10%. Out of 20 shots from a
three-point line, about how many points could she predict she would make?

Answer 1

She would make 2 because if her probability to make the shot is 1/10, then you multiply 20/1 by 1/10 to get 20/10, then you turn the improper fraction into the number 2

Answer 2

She would hit 2 shots because 1/10*2 would be 2/20 so 18 misses or if i am shoping and some thing is 20$ and it is 10% off then it would be 2$ off or 18$.
