Answer: 18

Step-by-step explanation: Since the team wants 15 wins and their probability of winning is 5/6, you would have to have 15 over x (variable for unknown number) and have it equal to 5/6. The equation should be
(5)/(6) =(15)/(x) from here you can try to cross multiply so its 5 x x is equal to 15 x 6. This simplified is 5x= 90. 90 divided by 5 is 18.
