114pts/9games = 114/9 pts/game

114/9 pts/game * 24 games = ____ pts
For problem A, you would divide the 114 points by the 9 games to get the average points that she scores per game.
For problem B, you would take the answer to the question above and multipy it by the 24 games. Then you would have the anser to how many points she would score in a total of 24 games.
Hope this helps :)
A) around 13 baskets
b) 312 cause 13x24 is 312
