Question

A local cricket team WON 20 matches in one season. If they lost 20% of them. How many matches did they played in one season?

Answer 1

Answer:

25

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of Lost Matches = 20%

Percentage of Won Matches = 100% - 20%

= 80 %

Number of Won Matches = 20 match

Let the total number of Matches be x .

=>

$\frac{80}{100} \times x = 20$

=>

$\frac{4}{5} \times x = 20$

=>

$x = 20 \times \frac{5}{4}$

=>

$x = 5 \times 5$

$x = 25$

Therefore total matches played is 25 .

Answer 2

a local cricket team won (4) four matches
