The ratio of a quarterback's completed passes to attempted passes is 6 to 7. If he attempted
21 passes, find how many passes he completed.

He completed 18 passes. Since he started out attempting 7 and then it went to 21, 21 divided by 7 is three. To then make it even on both sides you would need to multiply 6 but 3 in order to get the number of completed passes. You can also take the final answer, 18/21, and reduce it and find it is 6/7.

Let's see, divide first: 6/7 = 85%

So the quarterback completes about 85% of his throws. So, 85% of 21 is 17.85

So he completed about 17 of his throws
