Answer: D) 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Each time we progress through a round, the teams count is cut in half.

After round one, there are 128/2 = 64 teams left (since we have 64 winning teams and 64 losing teams)

After the second round, there are 64/2 = 32 teams left over

Answer:

128/2=64/2=32

Step-by-step explanation:

you really need a help with that ? you don't know how to divide by 2 ? and then to divide the result another time by 2 ?

not to mention that you could achieve that with in division by 4 (as this is the save as dividing by 2 and then again by 2).

putting such questions in here is a farce and a waste of time for the helping people.
