Question

Lillianne made 6 out of every 10 baskets she attempted during basketball practice. If she attempted to make 25 baskets, how many did she make

Answer 1

You can use a proportion.

6 out of 10 is the same as x out of 25.

6/10 = x/25

10x = 6 * 25

10x = 150

x = 15

Lillianne made 15 out of 25 baskets.
