Background:
Possession = end result is a FG or a FTP
FG = field goal
FTP = possession that ends in Free Throws
FTA = Free Throw attempts (these are worth 0.475 FTP)
If I have 100 possessions and I know the FTA/FG ratio is 33.3% how do I solve for FG and FTP?
I want to know how many of those 100 possessions ended in FGs and how many ended in FTPs.
By hand I get something like 13.75 FTP and 86.25 FG but how do I figure this out mathematically?
thanks for any help!
