Kaitlyn makes 65% of her free throws on the basketball court. If she attempts 50 free throws in practice, about how many would you expect her to make?

Respuesta :

32.5 , so about 32 or 33 throws

Answer: Its 33 !

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay so its actually not that bad at all !

So STEP 1

Convert your percent into a decimal : 65% -->  .65

STEP 2 you still following me you got this !

since kaitlyn attempts to throw  50  free throws all you need to do is multiply your decimal you converted by 50

it would look like this   .65 X 50 = 32.5

Step 3

Depending on what your answer choices are 32.5 is going to have to be rounded upwards remember anything at or above 5 you round up. Anything below 5 you round down so your answer will be  33 in this problem

Summary  

when seeing questions like this  convert that percent into a decimal  then depending on what is being counted for. you multiply your decimal by the number !  Hope this helps thanks for reading <3
