Hi!

We will find the solution like this:

76 - 53 = 23 that's the difference in numbers, so now we have to find the percentage of this difference related to throwing the ball before strength and conditioning program, like this:

23/53 = 0,434 = 43,4%

The correct answer is B. 43,4%.

Hope this helps!

The answer is b 43.4%
