Answer:

  C.  22

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem statement tells you ...

  missed = 24.6% × 90

  = 0.246 × 90 = 22.14

The best estimate among the answers given is 22, choice C.

_____

<em>Comment on the problem statement</em>

The percentage given is supposedly computed from the number of shots attempted and missed <em>this season</em>. The ratio 22/90 would give a percentage rounded to 24.4%, not 24.6%.

24.4% of 90 is 21.96, closer to 22.

0.375<0.38<0.4

therefore: 3/8,0.38,2/5

*Remember that you can convert fractions to decimals by dividing the numerator by the denominator! This makes it much easier to compare :)
