Question

The hockey team won 8 out of their first 14 games. At the same rate, how many games should they expect to win out of 84

Answer 1

48

Explanation:

Answer 2

The answer is 48 games out of 84.

Explanation:

So first we go through a step by step process.

We have a problem set up that looks something like this.

8/14 = ?/84

Step 1:

So we will first divide 84 by 14, giving us 6.

Step 2:

So 14x6 is equal to 84. Now we have to multiply the top half of the equation by 6. This is 8x6 giving us 48.

Step 3:

Now we substitute the ? with the 48. In the end if playing 84 games the hockey team would win 48 at the rate it was going.

Hope this helped!
