The likelihood that Han makes a free throw in basketball is 60%. The likelihood that he makes a 3-point shot is 0.345. Which event is more likely, Han making a free throw or making a 3-point shot? Explain your reasoning.

Answer:

-The event of a free throw. It has the higher probability of the two events.

Step-by-step explanation:

-We convert the likelihood of a free throw into a decimal probability to compare:

[tex]60\%=\frac{60}{100}\\\\\\=0.6[/tex]

#We then compare this probability to the probability of a 3-pointer:

[tex]0.6>0.345\\\\[/tex]

Hence, the event of a a free- throw is more likely since it has a high probability that the event of a 3-pointer(0.6>0.345)

Answer: 81% of free throws
