A basketball player made 40% of his free-throws during the season. The player made 124 free-throws. How many free-throw attempts did he have in total?

Answer :

1. Use the cross products (aka the loop method) method to create an equation: 40x = 124x100
2. Simplify the equation. 40x = 12400
3. Solve for x by dividing 12400 by 40.
x = 310.
The player attempted to make 310 free-throws.
