    Ratio of the free throws completed to attempted free throws is given to be 4:7. This ratio should be equal to the ratio of the next case. Let x be the number of free throws attempted. The proportion takes a form of,

    (4 completed / 7 attempted) = (12 completed / x attempted)

    Solving for x gives x = 21. Thus, the answer is letter c. which is the second among the choices.
