Answer 1

1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .

Explanation:

Here we have , John kept track of how many baskets were made in a basketball game. After 4 minutes, 5 baskets were made. We need to find How many baskets were made between 9 and 10 minutes . Let's find out:

In order to calculate baskets between 9 min and 10 min we will find baskets at 10 min and at at 9 min , will subtract than !

Baskets at 10 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 10 min

⇒
`(10)(5)/(4)`

⇒
`1.25(10)`

⇒
`12.5`

Baskets at 9 min :

At 4 min we have 5 baskets so , in 9 min

⇒
`(9)(5)/(4)`

⇒
`1.25(9)`

⇒
`11.25`

So , Baskets between 10 & 9 min is
`12.5-11.25=1.25` , which on rounding off gives 1 . Therefore , 1 basket is between 9 and 10 minutes .
