Question

i made 32 of 50 basketball throws, what persent did i miss

Answer 1

To find the percentage of throws you missed, you can follow these steps:

1. First, determine how many throws you missed:
\[
\text{Missed throws} = \text{Total throws} - \text{Made throws} = 50 - 32 = 18
\]

2. Next, calculate the percentage of missed throws:
\[
\text{Percentage missed} = \left( \frac{\text{Missed throws}}{\text{Total throws}} \right) \times 100
\]
\[
\text{Percentage missed} = \left( \frac{18}{50} \right) \times 100 = 36\%
\]

So, you missed **36%** of your basketball throws.
