The answer is 30.
To find out, we can use the proportion:
3/10 = x/100
Cross-multiplying, we get:
10x = 3 * 100
Simplifying:
10x = 300
x = 30
So if you shoot 100 free throws, you can expect to make around 30 free throws.
To determine how many free throws you can expect to make if you shoot 100 free throws, you need to find the average or the expected value.
First, calculate the shooting percentage by dividing the number of successful free throws by the total number of attempts: 3 successful / 10 attempts = 0.3 or 30%.
Then, multiply the shooting percentage by the total number of free throw attempts: 0.3 x 100 = 30.
Therefore, you can expect to make approximately 30 free throws if you shoot 100 free throws.
