Question

Mike made 39 of 65 free throws.  If Mike makes 35 more free throws how many of them will he need to make to have made 70%?

Answer 1

Mike made 39 of 65 free throws.  If Mike makes 35 more free throws how many of them will he need to make to have made 70%?

39 + x = 0.7(65 + 35)
39 + x = 0.7(100)
39 + x = 70
x = 70 - 39
x = 31
