Yes she will break the school record if she continues to score at that rate. You divide 60 / 4 since there are 60 minutes in a full game. That gives you 15. Then you multiply that answer by 9 because she scores 9 points each of those 4 minutes. That will get her to score 135 points by the end of the game
