Help! @paki @Legends In one basketball season, Tim made 75% of the free throws he attempted. Tim made 36 free throws. How many free throws did he attempt?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think that its 27...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Do you know how to go about solving this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

We an write an equation. 75% of 'x' = 36 0.75x = 36 Divide 36 / 0.75 what do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Fan and medal.... No...

OpenStudy (legends):

Deadpool it can't be 27 because remember he made 36 already so it has to be more than 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So its 48?

OpenStudy (legends):

So the answer is 48 shots if you multiply 48 * 0.75 it will equal to 36

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@Deadpool. Divide 36 / 0.75 and you have your answer
