MY REAL WORLD SITUATION IS FOOTBALL

MY NUMBER

A PLAYER

• The line of scrimmage is the 22.5 yard line
• A player catches a pass for a 55.5 yard gain
• How much farther to score?
• I would add 22.5 + 55.5 to get 78.0 yards
• Then i would subtract 78.0 from 100 to get 22.0

A PLAYER

• The line of scrimmage Is on the 45.5 yard line defense and sacks the
• For a loss of 22.5 yards how many yards until they get a saftey?
• You would subtract 422.5 from 45.5 and you get the answer

IF THE RUNNING BACK

• Gained 127.5 yards in the game, and carried the ball
• 15.0 times, what was his average yards per carry?
• I would divide 127.5 by 15.0 to get 8.5 per carry

THE QUARTERBACK

• Threw the ball 22 times during the game. He averaged
• 13 yards per pass what was his total average?
• I would multiply 13 x 22 which would be 286 yards in the game

THE END
