Question

Jamal’s basketball team won 62.5% of their games this season. If the team played 48 games this season, how many games did they win?

Answer 1

The team won 30 games this season

Explanation:

To find the 62.5% of a total of 48 games, one simply have to multiply the decimal form of the percent (62.5% = 0.625) times the total number of games:

0.625 x 48 = 30
