Question

A football team won 10 matches out of the total number of matches they played. If their win percentage was 40%, then how many matches did they play in all.

​

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of matches be x.

Since their win percentage or win rate is 40℅,

Number of matches won = 40℅ of x = (40/100)*x = 2x/5

Now, we are provided in the question that, the football team won 10 matches.

So, we can say that,

2x / 5 = 10

2x = 5 * 10

2x = 50

x = 50 / 2

x = 25

Hence, the football team played 25 matches in all.
