Answer:
16 times
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is solved by ratio. Since the ratio of 28 out of 25 times is 4:5, he has to catch the ball 4:5 or 4 of 5 times. You multiply both 5 and 4 by 4, because that's how many times he's gonna catch it. 4 x 4 = 16, so the answer is 16 times.
Answer:
(4/5)^20
Step-by-step explanation:
1) First, write the numbers of times Raymond caught the football out of 35 attempts. This is a necessary step in order to obtain an appropriate operand.
28
35
2) Reduce the fraction to lowest terms. This is an optional step but it simplifies the problem.
28 / 4
35 4
= 4
5
3) Raise the fraction to the 20th power. If the ball is thrown at him 20 times, the probability of him successfully catching the ball must be (4/5)^20.
= (4)^2
(5)
