Step-by-step explanation:
Here we have , If 38% of a basketball team's 3-point attempts were successful and the team scored 1,824 points from 3-pointers in one season . We need to find how many 3-point attempts did the team make during the season . Let's find out:
Let u represent the total number of 3-point attempts . According to question , only 38% of u are the attempts which to score of 1,824 . More precisely , only 38% of u are the attempts which is equal to ⇒ [tex]\frac{1824}{3}[/tex] attempts i.e.
⇒ [tex]\frac{38u}{100}=\frac{1824}{3}[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{38u}{100}=608[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\frac{38u(100)}{(38)100}=608(\frac{100}{38})[/tex]
⇒ [tex]u=16(100)[/tex]
⇒ [tex]u=1600[/tex]
Therefore, 1,600 3-point attempts did the team make during the season .
