Rene Booth · Answer 1

Answer: He scored 3 baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

in the first game, he scored 15 and missed 5, the ratio is:

15/5 = 3

this means that for each shot missed, he scores 3.

In the second game he missed one shot, and because the shooting was just as accurate in the second game than in the first, then the amount that he scored is equal to 3 times the number that he missed, this is:

3*1 = 3

he scored 3 baskets.
