While practicing her foul kicks for soccer, Louisa made 85% of her shots. If she made 51 shots, how many shots did she kick in total?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the exact answer is 58.65

Step-by-step explanation:

since she made 85% of her shots, that means in total from her 51 shots, she made 115% more than 51 (you add 15% to 100%). The 15% is from the difference of 100% and 85%. You then change 115% to fraction form (1.15) and multiply it by the amount of shots made, getting you 58.65. Since you can't make a fraction in terms of a real life scenario like this, you prob need to round or something. Diff teachers want diff things

The answer is 60 because you would do 100 divided by 85 multipled by 51
