Matt's baseball team played 44 games this season. If they lost 1/4 of them, how many games did they win?

to figure out how many games were lost, we need to find 1/4 of 44

"of" implies multiplication so

1/4 · 44 = 11

11 games were lost so we can subtract this from the total games to find out how many were won

44-11 = 33

33 games were won

hope this helped

11, you take your 44 and divide it by 4
