A girl makes 12 foul shots for every eight shots that she misses how many shots did she make if she shot 125 foul shots ​

41.67 shots or 42 shots

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 12 foul shots for 8 misses

12 = 8

We are to find how many misses are for 125 foul shots

This could also be represented like this;

125 = x

Now let's set up a fraction for that

Divide

Now that we've found how many she missed, we can mark the remaining as the shots she made.

To do that, subtract the =83\frac{1}{3} from the total (125)

125 - 83 = 41.67

However, since shots cannot be in decimals or in fractions, (for instance, you cannot make half a shot. It's all or nothing.)

Therefore, she missed either 41.67 shots or 42 shots.
