GPT 3.5
Let's represent the total number of free throws Anthony attempted as x.
We know that he missed 2% of the free throws he attempted, so the number of missed free throws can be calculated as 0.02 * x = 0.02x.
We are given that he missed 26 free throws, so we can set up the equation 0.02x = 26.
To find x, we divide both sides of the equation by 0.02: x = 26 / 0.02 = 1300.
Therefore, Anthony attempted a total of 1300 free throws.
