Answer: 27

Explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to apply proportions:

Michael hits the bulls-eye on a dart board 18 out of 30 tries

The proportion is: 18 hits / 30 times= 18/30

For 45 times:

x hits / 45 times

Where x is the number of hits out of 45 times.

So:

18/30 = x/45

Solving for x:

[18/30] 45 = x

x =27

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
