Make Estimations: How many points are approximately scored during an NBA regular season by all teams combined? Carlos Trigo Parameters that May Contribute: ο· ο· ο· Average points per game for each team (PGT) Teams competing per season (TC) Total games that each team plays (GT) Initial Assumption: I assume that overall, the result would come out as something close to 200,000 Rough Estimates for Each Parameter: ππΊπ = 105 πππππ‘π πππ πππβ π‘πππ ππΆ = 30 π‘ππππ ππππππ‘πππ πΊπ = 32 πππππ πππ πππβ π‘πππ Total points (TP) and Final Estimated: ππ = ππΊπ × ππΆ × πΊπ ππ = 105 × 30 × 82 ππ = 258,300 I estimate that there are approximately 258,300 points scored during an NBA regular season by all teams combined. My initial assumption, which I already thought was an exaggerated number, was 58,300 points lower than the final calculated estimate.
