Answer 1

Answer

Total number of matches lost = 20

Given

A cricket team played 50 matches in a  season . It won 60% of them

No matches drawn

To Find

Number of matches lost

Solution

Total number of matches played = 50

Winning % = 60 %

So ,

Loosing % = 100 - 60 = 40 %

Let's find total number of matches lost ,

$\to \rm 40\ \%\ (50)\\\\\to \rm \dfrac{40}{100}\times 50\\\\\to \rm \dfrac{40}{2}\\\\\to \rm\ 20$

So , total number of matches lost = 20

Answer 2

Answer:

GIVEN,

TOTAL NUMBER OF MATCH=50

WON PERCENTAGE =60%

LOSS PERCENTAGE =?

AS TOTAL PERCENTAGE =100%

THEN,

LOSS PERCENTAGE =TOTAL PERCENTAGE- WON PERCENTAGE

=(100-60)%

= 40%

ACCORDING TO QUESTION.

NO OF MATCH LOST=?

HERE,

NO OF MATCHES LOST= LOSS PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL MATCH

= 40%OF 50

= 40/100*50

=2000/100

=20

HENCE THE TOTAL NUMBER OF MATCH LOSS IS 20
