An average scott makes a basket 9 times out of 12 when he is practicing how many baskets can he expect to make when he tried 200.

150

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Scott's ratio of making the basket is 9/12. All we need to do is find out how many baskets he'll make if he attempts 200 shots.

So, 9/12 needs to become x/200. We don't know what x is yet, but there's a shortcut.

9/12 can be simplified by dividing 3 on the top and bottom.

9/12 ÷ 3/3 = 3/4

We can then see how many times 4 can go into 200.

200/4 = 50

So, we multiply 3/4 by 50 on both the top and bottom.

3/4 × 50/50 = 150/200.

So, if he attempts 200 shots then he'll make 150 of them.

the answer for this question is 38
