Jatzel is practicing his free throws for basketball, so he shoots 100 free throws. Jatzel hits the rim and misses with 3/5 of his shots, hits the backboard and misses with 17% of his shots, and makes the remaining shots. How many free throws did Jatzel make?

1 answer

First, let's find out how many shots Jatzel missed by hitting the rim. Since he misses with 3/5 of his shots, the number of shots he misses by hitting the rim is:

3/5 * 100 = 60

Next, let's find out how many shots Jatzel missed by hitting the backboard. Since he misses with 17% of his shots, the number of shots he misses by hitting the backboard is:

17% of 100 = 0.17 * 100 = 17

Now, let's add the number of shots Jatzel missed by hitting the rim and hitting the backboard:

60 + 17 = 77

So, Jatzel made the remaining shots:

100 - 77 = 23

Therefore, Jatzel made 23 free throws.
