During the soccer season, richard attempted 80 goals and made about 65% of them.
a. How many goals did Richard make?
b. The team made a total of 327 goals. What percent of the team's made goals did Richard make?
.65 * 80
100 (.65*80)/327
To answer this question, we need to use some basic math. Let's break down each part step by step.
a. To determine the number of goals Richard made, we need to find 65% of the attempted goals.
To find 65% of a number, we can multiply the number by 0.65 (which is the decimal form of 65%). So, to find how many goals Richard made, we can use the following equation:
Goals made by Richard = Attempted goals * 0.65
Substituting the given values, we get:
Goals made by Richard = 80 * 0.65
Simplifying this equation, we find:
Goals made by Richard = 52
Therefore, Richard made 52 goals.
b. To determine what percent of the team's made goals Richard made, we need to divide the number of goals Richard made by the total number of goals made by the team and then multiply by 100.
To find the percentage, we can use the following equation:
Percentage = (Goals made by Richard / Total goals made by the team) * 100
Substituting the given values, we get:
Percentage = (52 / 327) * 100
Simplifying this equation, we find:
Percentage ≈ 15.90%
Therefore, Richard made approximately 15.90% of the team's made goals.
