Eve plays basketball. She makes 7 free throws for every 3 free throws that she misses. If she missed 24 free throws at her last practice, how many free throws did she make?



Answer :

This might sound as a ratio problem. So the ratio would be:
7:3
If she missed 24 free throws, the new ratio would be:
?:24
To do this, we would need to find how many times did 3 go into 24. 3 goes into 24 8 times. We do the same thing to the 7. We multiply 7X8, which is 56.
The new ratio is:
56:24
So, Eve made 56 free throws.

Answer:alot or a few
