Answer :
The ratio of a basketball player's
completed free throws : attempted free throws
7 : 4
There are 12 free throws.
= 7 / 4 of 12
= 21 free throws.
If she completed 12 free throws, the number of free throws she attempted is 21 free throws.
completed free throws : attempted free throws
7 : 4
There are 12 free throws.
= 7 / 4 of 12
= 21 free throws.
If she completed 12 free throws, the number of free throws she attempted is 21 free throws.
Answer:
21 free throws is true.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that:
Let the completed free throws be denoted by : C
and attempted free throws be denoted by A.
The ratio of a basketball player's completed free throws to attempted free throws is 4 to 7.
i.e. [tex]\dfrac{C}{A}=\dfrac{4}{7}[/tex]
If she completed 12 free throws, we have to find how many free throws did she attempted.
Now we are given C=12.
[tex]\dfrac{12}{A}=\dfrac{4}{7}\\\\A=12\times \dfrac{7}{4}\\\\A=3\times 7\\\\A=21[/tex]
Hence, total number of free throws attempted= 21
