The formula to calculate Points Per Minute is:
\[ \text{PPM} = \frac{P}{PT} \]
Where:
Points Per Minute (PPM) is a metric that measures the average number of points scored per minute of play. It is calculated by dividing the total points scored by the total time played. This metric helps in understanding the scoring efficiency of a player or team.
Example 1:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{PPM} = \frac{120}{40} = 3 \text{ points/min} \]
Example 2:
Using the formula:
\[ \text{PPM} = \frac{75}{25} = 3 \text{ points/min} \]
