Question

A professional basketball team won 48 games and lost 32. what fraction of the games did the team win?

Answer 1

Answer:3/5 of the games

Step-by-step explanation: The total number of games played by the team is 48+32 = 80 games. out of hose 80, they won 48 so they won 48/80 games. We can simplify this by dividing both sides by 8 to get 6/10. Which is 60%. Finally we can simplify again by dividing the fraction by 2/2 to get 3/5.

Answer 2

48/80 = 6/10

Explanation:

48 wins

+ 32 lost

= 80 total games

Then the fraction of the games win is:

48/80

= 6/10
