(C) 118
(D) 114​

Answer 1

Answer:

114

Step-by-step explanation:

Success rate at one stage: 25% from 60 = 15 maches win

Next Lost matches: 12

Let X be a required wins beyobd first 15 matches= x

Total win matches : x+15

Total matches: 60+12+x = 72+x

50% matches: (72+x)/2 = 36+ x/2

Well Total win matchs = 50% matches

(15+x)= (36+x/2)

x/2 = 36-15

x=42

total matches = 60+12+42= 114

Required more wining : 42

Already win : 15

Total wining: 57

50% winning rate : 114÷2 = 57

Minimum required total matches 114
