Answer:

55 games

Explanation:

What we have to figure out is the total amount of games they played the whole year. We know they won 20% of their games, which equates to 11 games won in total. In order to find the total amount of games we will need to set up the equation
g = 11/20%. We solve this accordingly:
g = (11/20) *100;
g = (.55)*100;
g = 55.
