The formula for percentage is:

is/of = %/100

In the given problem,
is = ?
of = 25
% = 80

We get,

?/25 = 80/100

"is" is unknown so let "is" be "x"

x/25 = 80/100

We have to cross multiply. Meaning, we will multiply the numerator of one fraction by the denominator of the other fraction. Therefore,

100x = (80)(25)
100x = 2000
x = 20

The answer is 20. The basketball player is expected to make 20 free throw shots out of 25 in the entire game.

Answer:

Urban area = 58.27%

Suburban area = 34.83%

Rural area = 6.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Total number of women = 290

Number of women in urban area = 169

Suburban area women = 101

Rural are women = 20

So, we can calculate the percentage of number of women from each area by using following formula,

Percentage = Women in specific area ÷ total women

So, percentage of Urban area = 169 ÷ 290 = 0.5827 or 58.27%

percentage of suburban area = 101 ÷ 290 = 0.3483 or 34.83%

percentage of rural area = 20 ÷ 290 = 0.0690 or 6.9%

Pie chart for the given information is attached below.
