26% of 65 is 0.26*65 = 16.90

Carly made 17 of her 65 foul shots.

Answer: There are 250 shots that she made.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of foul shots during the season = 65

Let the number of shots she made be 'x'.

According to question, 26% of her foul shots she make.

So, it becomes,

[tex]\dfrac{26}{100}\times x=65\\\\0.26\times x=65\\\\x=\dfrac{65}{0.26}\\\\x=250[/tex]

Hence, there are 250 shots that she made.
