Let the number of games played be x. 68% of x comes out to 17 games.
Then 0.68x = 17. Mult. both sides by 100: 68x = 1700.
Divide 68 into 1700 to obtain x, the number of games played: x = 25
The team plays in 25 games.
Then 0.68x = 17. Mult. both sides by 100: 68x = 1700.
Divide 68 into 1700 to obtain x, the number of games played: x = 25
The team plays in 25 games.
Answer: The total number of games played are 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the total number of games played be 'x'
We are given:
Number of games won = 17
Percentage of games won = 68 %
Calculating the total number of games:
[tex]68\% \text{ of x}=17[/tex]
So,
[tex]\frac{68}{100}\times x=17\\\\x=\frac{17\times 100}{68}=25[/tex]
Hence, the total number of games played are 25
