The basketball player made 5 out of 6 free throws, so he missed 1 free throw. To find the percent of free throws he missed, we divide the number of missed free throws (1) by the total number of free throws attempted (6) and multiply by 100.
(1/6) * 100 = 16.66¯¯¯¯¯ %
Therefore, the correct answer is A. 16.66¯¯¯¯¯ %.
