    5 goals

    Step-by-step explanation:

    From the question 86.1% of the shots is 31

    It is assumed that the shots that were not stopped ended as goals.

    Represent the total no shots with H

    86.1/100 * H = 31

    0.861 H = 31

    H = 31 / 0.861

    H = 36.00

    The number of shots not stopped equals no of goals;

    36 - 31 = 5

    5 goals were scored
