last night, the Knicks made 12 free throws. if their free throw percentage is 75%, how many free throws were attempted.

Sagot :

[tex]x-\ free\ throws\ which\ were\ attempted\\\\ 75\%x=12\\\\ 0,75x=12\ \ \ | divide\ by\ 0,75\\\\x=16\\\\ There\ were\ 16\ throws\ attempted. [/tex]

Let x be # of free throws attempted

75%x = 12

75% = 0.75

0.75x = 12

0.75x/0.75 = 12/0.75

x = 16


Therefore, 16 free throws were attempted.
