Stephan curry of the golden state warriors made 29 baskets some were 2 points some were 3 points. If the total points he scores was 45 how much did he make?

Answer 1

Answer: He makes 261 baskets to earn 45 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of points = 2 + 3 = 5

Number of baskets = 29

if he makes 45 points,

We need to find the number of baskets.

According to question, we get that

$\dfrac{5}{29}=\dfrac{45}{x}\\\\5x=45\times 29\\\\x=\dfrac{45\times 29}{5}\\\\x=261$

Hence, he makes 261 baskets to earn 45 points.
