问题 Jim scored 95 points in 5 basketball games for his school. At this rate, how many points will he have scored by the end of the 12-game season?

选项

答案228

解析 Use a proportion to solve this problem. You know that Jim scored 95 points in 5 games, and you want to find out how many points he will score in a total of 12 games. The proportion will look like this:
95/5 = x/12
Cross-multiply to get 5x = 1,140. Divide both sides by 5, and you get the answer: x = 228. If Jim continues to score at this rate, he will score a total of 228 points by the end of the season(12 games).
