Answer: 9 games

Step-by-step explanation: To find out how many games the eagles won, we need to find 60% of the the games they played last season which is 15.

To find 60% of 15, first write 60% as a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left to get .60. Next, the word "of" means multiply so we will multiply .60 by the number of games they played which is 15.

(.60) (15) = 9

This means that the eagles won 9 out of the 15 games they played.
