Question

Angel practices basketball everyday. On Monday, out of 45 shots, angel made three- fifths of the basket. How many baskets did Angle make?

Answer 1

27 baskets

Explanation:

You have to take 3/5 of 45

3/5 times 45

Cross reduce 5 and 45 to get 9

9 times 3 is 27

Angel made 27 baskets

*Instead of cross reducing, you could also multiply straight across to get 135/5, which, when divided, is 27.

Answer 2

Angel make {(45x(3/5)} = 27
