Question

A local cricket team played 20 matches in one season. If it won 25% of them and lose the rest .How many matches did it lose?

Answer 1

Total number of matches played = 20.

Given, Won = 25%.

Then, Loss = (100 - 25)%

                  = 75%.

Now,

⇒ 75% of 20

⇒ (75/100) * 20

⇒ 15.

Therefore, the number of matches they lost = 15.

Hope it helps!
