Question

To make it to the final round of bag tossing competition, Chris must toss the bean bag through a target hole 55% of her attempts. Chris made 14 out of 25 tosses. Will she make it to the final round?

Answer 1

Yes, she will make it to the final round.

Explanation:

Given:

The target hole must be hit by the bean bag with 55% of her attempts.

Chris made 14 out of 25 tosses of the bean bag.

Now, in order to find whether Chris clears for the final round or not, we have to find the percent equivalent of her tossing of the bean bag.

So, total tosses = 25

Number of times the bean bag hit the target = 14

Therefore, the percentage equivalent of successfully hitting the target is given as:

`Percent=(14)/(25)* 100\\\\Percent=14* 4=56\%`

Therefore, the percentage equivalent of her successful attempts is 56% which is more than the threshold percentage required of 55%.

So, she will definitely make it to the final round.
