Question

Solve the following:

A cricket team won 18 matches out of the total number of matches they

played on the Fatorda ground. If their winning percentage was 60%. Then

how many matches did they play in all?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Total matches played by the cricket team during the year(n)= 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Total matches played by the cricket team during the year = n

Number matches won = 60%

Number matches lost = (100-60)%

= 40%

Now,

According to the problem given,

40% of n = 24

=> 40% × n = 24

\implies \frac{40}{100} \times n = 24⟹

100

40

×n=24

\implies n = 24 \times \frac{100}{40}⟹n=24×

40

100

After cancellation, we get

\implies n = 60⟹n=60

Therefore,

Total matches played by the cricket team during the year(n)

= 60
