Answer:
The last one: 70/100 = x/80
And 56 free throws.
Explanation:
70% is 70 out of 100. And if the player is free throwing a total of 80 times, then 80 is 100% of the free throws. Both of the values that represent 100% are the denominators in the fractions.
The equations are equal, and whatever you do to the bottom, you have to do to the top. 100 was multiplied by 4/5 to get 80. So 70 is multiplied by 4/5 to get x.
4/5 * 70 is 56
Hmmmm to convert from improper to mixed, simply do the division of both, the quotient gets upfront, the remainder as the numerator, for example,
how many times 3 goes into 81? well, 27 times, with a remainder of 0, thus
how many times does 2 go into 29? well 14 times, with a remainder of 1, thus
