How good is Ms. L at free throws?
Ms. L thinks she is a pretty freakin' good free throw shooter. How many free throws would you like to see Ms. L shoot before you could be confident guessing her free throw percentage? We’ll watch Ms. L shoot free throws, when you are confident make a guess at her free throw percentage.
2. What do you think Ms. L’s true free throw percentage is?
