3. The BYU mens basketball team have a 7.93 winning percentage in the marriott center that has been created over 40 years.
Correction: The BYU men's basketball team has a 79.3 winning percentage in the Marriott Center, which has been built over the last 40 years.
Rule/ Reason: There are a lot of problems with this sentence. First mens needed a ' because it is an ownership. Then i placed the decimal place wrong which makes their teams percentage go from an awful 7.93% to an amazing 79.3%. Marriott Center needs to be capitalized because it is a proper noun/ it is a name of a place. The last part was really wordy so i changed it to be less confusing.
