During a Middle School basketball season, Antonio made 17 of his free throws out of 20. What percent of his free throws did he make?

I see a fraction. Don't you. Here it is 17/20. Now, let's divide 17 by 20 to get a decimal number, which is 0.85. Next, we multiply 0.85 by 100 to get the percent because that is what the question desires for us to express our answer. As a result, we get 85%, and Antonio made 85% of his free throws. By the way, I hope my response helps you.

Step-by-step explanation:

1 way is to do 17/ 20 using long division...

    0. 85

20⟌1700    ( I tried my best)

   - 160

      100

So the answer would be 85%

Another way to do it is by bringing the denominator to 100

Since 20 is 1/5 of 100, you would have to multiply the numerator and denominator by 5

17/ 20 = 17*5/ 20*5 = 85/ 100

And you get 85%

Hope this helps!!!
