Question

Percentages. what is the percentage the home team got if they scored 77 shots out of 110 possible points

Answer 1

To answer percentage question, just divide the smaller number (in this case 77) by the larger number (110) and you'll get a decimal answer.  In your case 77 divided by 110 = 70%

Answer 2

The percentage the home team got

= the home team score / total score

= 77/110

= 70%
