A basketball team won 35 out of the 50 games that they have played. They still have 25 games left to play for the season. How many of the remaining games must they win so that their percentage of wins in the entire season is 64%? Give me reasons, before answering the question
There are a total of 50 + 25 = 75 games in the entire season. Sixty - four percent of these games is 75 x 64 / 100 = 48. Since they already won 35, then the team needs to win 48 - 35 = 13 more games. So the final answer is 13.
