Jenny threw darts at the board and scored 100. How many darts did she throw,where did they land?40,39,24,17,16 you can use a number more than once!
2 * 16 = 32
4 * 17 = 68
68 + 32 = 100
2 throws of 16 points
4 throws of 17 points
2 + 4 = 6 throws
To determine how many darts Jenny threw and where they landed, we need to find a combination of the given numbers that adds up to 100. Let's go through the possibilities:
1. If Jenny throws 4 darts of 25 points each (4x25 = 100), then all darts would have landed in the 25-point section.
2. If Jenny throws 2 darts of 40 points each and 1 dart of 20 points (2x40 + 20 = 100), then two darts would land in the 40-point section, and one dart would land in the 20-point section.
3. If Jenny throws 1 dart of 40 points, 2 darts of 30 points each, and 1 dart of 0 points (40 + 2x30 + 0 = 100), then one dart would land in the 40-point section, two darts would land in the 30-point section, and one dart would miss the board (0 points).
4. There is no combination of the given numbers that sums up to exactly 100. Therefore, none of the given numbers can be used more than once to add up to 100.
Based on these possibilities, it appears that Jenny either threw 4 darts of 25 points each, or she threw 2 darts of 40 points each and 1 dart of 20 points.
