Answer 2

Answer:

The Dunkit Basketball team played 25 matches altogether.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the team play 'x' matches.

Games lost = 5

Games tied = 0

Games won = 80%

Number of games won = $\frac{80}{100}$ * x

                                       = $\frac{4x}{5}$

Total matches = Games lost + Games won + Games tied

=> x = 5 + $\frac{4x}{5}$ + 0

On solving, we get

5x = 25 + 4x

=> x = 25

Therefore, the Dunkit Basketball team played 25 matches altogether.
