Answer 1

Answer:

HEY MATE MARK ME AS BRAINLIEST AND FOLLOW ME IF IT HELPS ...

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. of matches he played :- 'x'

now,

||] number of matches he won :- 70 %

||] number of matches he lost :- 100% - 70%

:- 30%

Given that he lost 45 matches in his career...

So,

=> 30% of x = 45

=> 30 x = 45

100

=> 30x = 45×100 (by cross multiplication)

=> 30x = 4500

=> x = 4500

30

=> x = 150

Therefore No. of matches he played in overall is 150.

Answer 2

Answer:

150 Matches

Player won 70% matches

Hence % of matches player lost are, 100 - 70 = 30

i.e. 30% Matches player lost represents 45 of player's total matches.

Hence, let X be the total matches played, and 30% of X is 45 matches

Hence, ( 45×100 )/X = 30

X = ( 45×100)/30

X = 150

Hence, Player has played 150 matches
