12 games. At that rate, how many games will Yukiko's team win if it plays
64 games in all?

​

Answer 1

48

Explanation:

9/12 is the ratio of wins. after simplifing it, you get 3/4. You can use that to find the wins after 64 games. Divide 64 by 4 and multiply that by 3. The answer is 48 game wins after 64 games played.

Answer 2

Answer: Yukiko's team will win 48 games if they play 64 games in all.

Explanation:

Yukiko plays on the softball team at her school. The team won 9 of its first 12 games. If this rate is constant, it means that if Yukiko's team play x games, the number of games that they would win is

9/12 × x = 9x/12

Therefore, if Yukiko's team play 64 games, the number of games that they would win in all is

(9 × 64)/12 = 576/12 = 48
