Question

Margot won 24 of her last 36 tennis matches. At this rate , predict how many matches she will win out of her next 27 matches?

Answer 1

In her next 27 matches, she will win 18 matches.

Explanation:

To solve this situation, use proportional relationships since it is said that the next matches will be at the same rate.

`\begin{gathered} (24)/(36)=(x)/(27) \\ x=(27\cdot24)/(36) \\ x=18 \end{gathered}`

In her next 27 matches, she will win 18 matches.
