Allison made Arthur made of her shots. of his shots. Trevor missed 58% of his shots. Which friend had the best record for the number of shots made?

Answer 1

Henry had the best record for the number of shots made

Explanation:

From the given information.

Four friends are on a basketball team.

Henry

Allison

Arthur

Trevor

We are being told that Henry made 0.45 of his shots out of all his attempts

Allison made Arthur made of her shots of his shots.

i,e Arthur did the work for Allison , so out of Arthur's shot , we have to figured out Allison shots,

Trevor missed 58% of his shots.

i.e Trevor failed 0.58 of his shot, If he failed 0.58 shot

Then the attempts Trevor made is :

= 1 - 0.58

= 0.42

SO , Trevor made 0.42 shots out of all his attempt

N:B We are not given any information about Arthur's shots , so we can't determine Allison shot as well.

Therefore; we will focus on only Henry and Trevor shots

So ;

Henry made 0.45 of his shots

Trevor made 0.42 out of his shots

We can thereby conclude that :

Henry had the best record for the number of shots made
