Answer:

Jaxon made 11 free throws over the season.

Explanation:

If he made 5% of his free throws, we know that he will make 5% of the total number of free throws he took, which is 220:

We multiply 220 by 0.05, or 5% to find out how many free throws he made:

220*0.05 = 11

After that, we now know that Jaxon made 11 of his free throws out of 220 over the course of the season, or 5%.
