Explanation / Answer

Answer

Free throw percentage for Lions

number of free throw made = 8 and total free throw for lions = 16

so, Required percentage = (8/16)*100= 50.0%

Free throw percentage for Eagles

number of free throw made = 8 and total free throw for Eagles = 24

so, Required percentage = (8/24)*100= 33.3%

Field goal percentage for Lions

number of field goal made = 24+6 = 30 and total field goal for lions = 51+13=64

so, Required percentage = (30/64)*100= 46.9%

Field goal percentage for Eagles

number of field goal made = 20+12 = 32 and total field goal for lions = 43+16=59

so, Required percentage = (32/59)*100= 54.2%

Total Point scored by Lions = 1*(free shots made) + 2*(two point shots made) + 3*(three point shots made)

Free shot made= 8

Two point shot made = 24

Three point shot made= 6

so, Number of points = (1*8) + (2*24) + (3*6) = 8 + 48 + 18 = 74 points

Total Point scored by Eagles = 1*(free shots made) + 2*(two point shots made) + 3*(three point shots made)

Free shot made= 8

Two point shot made = 20

Three point shot made= 12

so, Number of points = (1*8) + (2*20) + (3*12) = 8 + 40 + 36 = 84 points
