Moshe Haas · Answer 1

Answer:14 balls did not hit the target.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 30% did, you would have to do 70% of 20.

Ciara Haynes · Answer 2

Answer: 14

Step-by-step explanation:

70% of balls did not hit the target, so multiply the number of footballs he threw by 70, then divide by 100 to find how many did not hit the target.

20 x 70 = 1400

1400 / 100 = 14

14 balls did not hit the target
