Dan made 85% of his free throws. If he took 45 shots how many did he make?

Sagot :

Answer:

38

Step-by-step explanation:

85%=.85

So 45 × .85 = 38.25

38 shots he made.

Hope this helps

Answer:  38

Work Shown:

85% = 85/100 = 0.85

85% of 45 = 0.85*45 = 38.25

Rounding to the nearest whole number, we get the result 38

As a check, 38/45 = 0.8444 approximately which converts to 84.44% and that's fairly close to 85%. If we tried 39, then 39/45 = 0.8667 = 86.67% which is a bit too high.
