Kenny wants to learn how to serve overhand in volleyball. When he practiced yesterday, he made 7 serves over the net for every 2 serves that did not go over the net.If Kenny attempted 36 serves yesterday, how many serves did he make over the net?

Respuesta :

Answer: 28

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Kenny made 7 serves over the net for every 2 serves that did not go over the net i.e. success rate of Kenny is

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{success rate}=\dfrac{7}{2+7}\times 100=\dfrac{700}{9}\%[/tex]

for 36 serves, applying the same success rate, it is

[tex]\Rightarrow \text{success rate}=\dfrac{700}{9}\times\dfrac{1}{100}\times 36=28[/tex]

Serves that did not make over the net is [tex]36-28=8[/tex]

Thus, Kenny will make 28 serves that make over the net
