Question 2 • Grade 7 Mathematics

Jason practiced making soccer goals and kept track of the results. He missed 3 goals but made 9 in one practice session. What can Jason predict regarding goals made if his next practice session has 24 tries?

Answer
A
Jason will make 18 goals.
B
Jason will make 8 goals.
C
Jason will make 16 goals.
D
Jason will make 21 goals.

Explanation

Jason made 9 goals and missed 3, so he took 12 tries total. He made 9/12, or 3/4, of his tries. If he has 24 tries next time, 3/4 × 24 = 18, so he can predict making 18 goals.
