Responses
A 1717
B 2323
C 6060
D 77
To find how many free throws Jatzel made, we first need to calculate how many shots he missed.
1. Shots that hit the rim and missed: 3/5 * 100 = 60
2. Shots that hit the backboard and missed: 17% of 100 = 17
Total shots missed = 60 + 17 = 77
Total shots made = 100 - 77 = 23
Therefore, Jatzel made 23 free throws.
The answer is B) 23.
