During one season, a college football quarterback attempted 439 passes and completed 267 of them for a total of 3,217 yards. What is his completion percentage?


Solving for: The completion percentage of a football quarterback.


Factual Information:


Number of atempted passes: 439

Number of total passes: 267



Step 1: Calculate the completion percentage.


Formula: Completion percentage equals (completed passes divided by attempted pass) x 100


Substitute the given values: (267 divided by 439) x 100 = .6082004556 x 100 = 60.82004556


roundoff as specified = 60.82



Solution:


The quarterback completion percentage is 60.82 %





I hope the mathematical calculations (step by step approach) was helpful. Please let me know if you require any more assistance. If anyone in my neighborhood is interested in setting up an in-person math tutoring session. I look forward to hearing from them. Have an amazing day. Doris H.
