Our badminton team has finished 75% of its season. So far, we have won 45% of the games we played. What percent of the remainder of our games must we win in order to finish the season with the same number of wins as losses?

Answer:

If the season has 80 games, we have played 60 games so far, meaning we have 20 games left. So far, we have won 45% of the 60 games, which is 27 games. To finish the 80-game season with the same number of wins as losses (40 wins and 40 losses), we must win 13 of the remaining 20 games, or 65% of the remaining 20 games.
