Question

A cricket team lost 40% of the matches they played. If they won 9 matches, ow many did they played in all?

Answer 1

Let total no. of matches played by cricket team be x

Given,
Team Lost 40% of x
=> left 60% of x indicates matches won

As per question,
60% of x= 9
=> (60/100) × x= 9
=> 3x= 5×9
=> x= 5 × 3= 15

•°• Total No. of matches played by the team „x= 15.

---------------------------------------------

To find x% of y
x% of y= (x/100)×y= (x × y)/100

---------------------------------------------
