12.8 take the dot two to the right giving you an answer of 1280

Reagan Cummings · Answer 2

Since 40% does not nicely go into 100% you split the 32 baskets she made. (32/2)

This means 16 baskets is 20%. Now that 20% goes nicely into 100% you multiply 16 by 5 and 20 by 5 to get 80.

The basketball player made 80 shot attempts.
