The following table gives the free throws attempted (FTA) and the free throws made (FTM) for the top five players in the NBA for a recent season. Calculate the free throw percentage for each player by writing the FTM over the FTA and converting this fraction to a decimal
Player FTM FTA
Allan Houston 363 395
Ray Allen 316 345
Steve Nash 308 339
Troy Hudson 208 231
Reggie Miller 207 230
The following table gives the winning percentages of the top five coaches in NFL history. What fraction of his games has each coach won?
Coach Percentage
Don Shula 0.676
George Halas 0.672
Tom Landry 0.606
Curly Lambeau 0.624
Paul Brown 0.667
Before I can answer you, I need the table.
FTA
___ = FTA divided by FPA to turn it into a decimal
FPA
george was born in 1732 and died in 1799 about how many years did he live
To calculate the free throw percentage for each player, you need to divide the number of free throws made (FTM) by the number of free throws attempted (FTA) and convert this fraction to a decimal.
For example, let's calculate the free throw percentage for Allan Houston:
FTM = 363
FTA = 395
To find the free throw percentage, divide FTM by FTA:
Free throw percentage = FTM / FTA
So, for Allan Houston:
Free throw percentage = 363 / 395 = 0.919
Similarly, you can calculate the free throw percentage for the other players using the same process.
Now let's move on to the winning percentages of the top five NFL coaches. To find the fraction of games won for each coach, you can convert the winning percentages to fractions.
For example, let's calculate the fraction of games won for Don Shula:
Percentage = 0.676
To convert it to a fraction, divide the percentage by 100:
Fraction = Percentage / 100
So, for Don Shula:
Fraction = 0.676 / 100 = 0.00676
Similarly, you can calculate the fractions of games won for the other coaches using the same process.
