Question

Kelly's team won 85% of the games they played in a season. The team lost 12 games. How many games did Kelly's win in the season?

Answer 1

68 games

Explanation:

Given data

out of 100%

they lost 15%

Let the total game played be x

so

15/100*x= 12

0.15x= 12

x= 12/0.15

x= 80 games

the total games played is 80

Hence the games won

=total games-games lost

=80-12

=68 games
