Answer:

20

Explanation:

Let the number of matches India played be X

Take the number of matches India won: 3x/5

Next, take the number of matches that India lost: 2x/5

We know that the Indian Cricket team won four matches than it had lost against New Zealand, so now let's set up our equation:

3x/5 = (2x/5) + 4

3x/5 - 2x/5 = 4

x/5 = 4

Multiply 5 on both sides and you'll get that:

x = 20
