GPT 3.5
First, we need to determine the number of free throws that Jatzel missed hitting the rim.
3/5 of the 100 shots = (3/5) * 100 = 60 shots missed hitting the rim.
Next, we need to determine the number of free throws that missed hitting the backboard.
17% of the 100 shots = 0.17 * 100 = 17 shots missed hitting the backboard.
Now, we can calculate the total number of shots missed: 60 (missed hitting the rim) + 17 (missed hitting the backboard) = 77 shots missed in total.
Therefore, the number of shots that Jatzel made is: 100 (total shots) - 77 (shots missed) = 23 shots made.
Jatzel made 23 free throws.
3/5 of the 100 shots = (3/5) * 100 = 60 shots missed hitting the rim.
Next, we need to determine the number of free throws that missed hitting the backboard.
17% of the 100 shots = 0.17 * 100 = 17 shots missed hitting the backboard.
Now, we can calculate the total number of shots missed: 60 (missed hitting the rim) + 17 (missed hitting the backboard) = 77 shots missed in total.
Therefore, the number of shots that Jatzel made is: 100 (total shots) - 77 (shots missed) = 23 shots made.
Jatzel made 23 free throws.
