Four friends are on a basketball team. During a game, each friend kept track of how many shots they attempted and how many of those attempts they made. Henry made 0.45 of his shots. Allison made 4/15 of her shots. Arthur made 8/20 of his shots. Trevor missed 58% of his shots. Which friend had the best record for the number of shots made?

Answer:

Henry has a best record for the number of shots made.

Explanation:

It is provided that Henry made 0.45 or 45% of his shots.

And Trevor missed 58% of his shots, i.e. Trevor made 42% of his shots.

There is no information about Allison's and Arthur's probability of making the shot.

So, only based upon Henry and Trevor, it can be seen clearly that Henry has a best record for the number of shots made.
