Could someone explain how to figure out this problem?

If I make 5 out of every 18 shots I shoot, how many should I make if I shoot 100 shots?

at the same success rate, 5/18 * 100 round to the nearest whole number, you cant make a partial shot.

estimatsing fractions 41/3 plus 8/9

To figure out the number of shots you should make if you shoot 100 shots, you would need to determine the ratio of successful shots to total shots and then apply that ratio to the given number of shots.

Step 1: Find the ratio of successful shots to total shots:
To find this ratio, divide the number of successful shots (5) by the total number of shots attempted (18):
Ratio = 5 / 18

Step 2: Apply the ratio to the 100 shots you plan to take:
Multiply the ratio you obtained in Step 1 by the total number of shots you plan to take (100):
Expected successful shots = Ratio * Number of shots
Expected successful shots = (5 / 18) * 100

Step 3: Calculate the result:
To obtain the final answer, divide (5 / 18) by 18 and multiply by 100:
Expected successful shots ≈ (5 / 18) * 100 ≈ 27.78.

Therefore, if you shoot 100 shots and maintain the same success rate of 5 out of 18 shots, you can expect to make approximately 27.78 shots.
