Question

The soccer team has lost 3 out of 7 games so far this season.

Approximately what percent of games has the team won?
30%
40%
43%
57%

Answer 1

The answer is 57%. If they have lost 3 out of 7 games, that means that they have won 4 out of 7 games. 4 is more than 50% of 7, and 57% is the only figure on there which is over 50.

If it wasn't that easy to find the answer though, you would divide 1 by 7 and then multiply it by 4 to get approximately 57%.

Answer 2

The won percentage is 57.14%.
