He has scored 162 points from the three-point line. If he's played in nine games, and he scored the same number of three-point shots in each game, how many three-point shots did he make per game?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6  three-point shots

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of points scored in nine games = 162 points

If he scored the same number of three-point shots in each game, the nmber of three points shots he made in each game will be expressed as;

1 game = x points

Since 9 games = 162 points

We will cross multiply and get s:

9 * x = 162 * 1

9x = 162

Divide both sides by 9;

9x/9 = 162/9

x = 18

Hence he has made 18 points in one game.

The number of 3 points shot made per game will be 18/3 = 6  three-point shots
