Question

The wild cats basketball team made 80% of the 95 shots taken. How many shots did they make?

Answer 1

To answer this question what you should do is to take 80% out of 95. To do this, you must make a simple rule of three which you can do as follows.
 95 ---> 100
 x ----> 80
 Clearing x we have
 x = ((80) / (100)) * (95) = 76
 answer
 they did make 76 shots of 95

Answer 2

95 total shots were taken, and the wild cats made 80% of them. Simply multiply 95 by 0.1 to give 10%, which is 9.5 shots, and then multiply that by 8 to give a total of 76. During the course of the game, the wild cats made 76 total shots.
