Question

18. A cricket team won 60% of the matches they played. If they had lost 24 matches, find the
total number of matches played by them. What fraction of the matches have they lost?
​

Answer 1

According to me the below is the correct answer



Let total matches be X
(40/100)* X = 24
X = 24* (100/40)
X = 24* 10/4
X = 6* 10
X = 60

So the total matches played by the team is 60 matches


I hope this helps you
