75 % free throws are made by Morton

Solution:

Given that Morton made 36 out of 48 free throws last season

To find: Percent of free throws made by Morton

From given statement,

total number of throws = 48

throws made by morton = 36

Thus the percent of free throws made by Morton is given as:


percent = \frac{\text{number of throws made}}{\text{total number of throws}} * 100

Substituting the values, we get


percent = (36)/(48) * 100\\\\percent = 0.75 * 100 = 75 %

Thus 75 % of his free throws are made by Morton
