Question

In a recent National Basketball Association season, LeBron James made about 47.18% of his field-goal attempts. If he made 386 field goals, about how many attempts did he make?

Answer 1

so set up the relationship

47.18 = 386

then multiply by 100 to find how many attempts he made. You should get approximately 818 attempts.
