In a basketball game, Melina's ratio of 2bpoint shot attempts to 3 point shot attempts was 4:1. What percent of Melina's attempted shots were 3 point shots?
Let x be the ratio denominator.
The ratio of 2-point shot attempts to 3-point shot attempts is 4:1 or 4/1 = 4/4 = 1.
So, the ratio numerator is 4.
The 3-point shot attempts were 4 / 1 + 4 = 4/5*100 = <<4/5*100=80>>80% of Melina's attempted shots. Answer: \boxed{80}.
To find the percentage of Melina's attempted shots that were 3-point shots, we need to determine the fraction of her total shot attempts that were 3-point shots and then convert it to a percentage.
Let's assume Melina attempted 4x shots on 2-point attempts and x shots on 3-point attempts.
The ratio of 2-point shot attempts to 3-point shot attempts is given as 4:1, which can be written as 4x:x.
The total number of shot attempts will be 4x + x = 5x.
So, the fraction of her total shot attempts that were 3-point shots is x / (4x + x) = x / 5x = 1/5.
To convert this fraction to a percentage, we multiply it by 100:
(1/5) * 100 = 20%.
Therefore, 20% of Melina's attempted shots were 3-point shots.
