Abasketball player missed 20% of her free throws. how many free throws did she attempt if she made 192

Hi!

We will solve this using proportions, like this:

Well we know that she misses 20% of her free throws. That means that she manages to put in 80% of her shots. We know that in this case 80% is 192, so using proportions, we will calculate the total amount of shots taken, like this:

80%=0,8 is 192 shots

100% = 1 is x shots

x = (192*1)/0,8

x = 192/0,8

x = 240

She attempted 240 free throws.

Hope this helps!
