Question

A cricket team wins 30% of total played matches in a year. If the team lost 55% matches and 3 matches are tie then how much matches were played by the team.

Answer 1

Given:

Win % = 30%

Loss % = 55%

Tied matches = 3

% of tied matches = 100 - (30+55) = 15%

Hence, 15% of total matches = 3

Total matches = 3*100/15 = 20 matches

Answer: 20 matches
