Alicia shoots a basketball at a hoop 100 times . She hits the backboard and misses with 2 5 of her shots, hits the rim and misses with 32% of her shots, and makes a basket with the rest of her shots . How many baskets does she make?

Answer 1

First, let's calculate how many shots Alicia misses in total.

Misses from hitting the backboard: 25% of 100 shots = 25 shots
Misses from hitting the rim: 32% of 100 shots = 32 shots

Total misses = 25 + 32 = 57 shots

Since she made a basket with the rest of her shots, the number of baskets she made is the total shots minus the total misses:

Total shots = 100
Total misses = 57

Therefore, total baskets made = 100 - 57 = 43

Alicia makes 43 baskets.
