Question

A basketball team played 65 games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost 4:3. How many games did they win? How did games did they lose ?

Answer 1

Let L be the number of losses. T is the total number of games, and it has the value 64. W is the number of wins.

They won 28 more than they lost, so W = L + 28.

Since W = L + 28, W = 18 + 28 = 46.

Tell me if this makes sense..! if it dont ill explain it more clearly! :)
