Question

If Blake scored 182 points in 14 games, how many will he score in 17 games?

Answer 1

Answer:

221 points

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a ratio of points to games

182:14

We can simplify this ratio into

13:1

This means he can score 13 points in 1 game. Now we can set up an equation to find how many he will score in 17 games.

$\frac{13}{1} =\frac{x}{17}$

Cross multiply

x=221

He will score 221 points

Answer 2

Answer:

221

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion.

182/14 = x/17

182 x 17 divided by 14 is 221
