Answer 2

A team played 25 games and won 17 of them. What percent did the team win.

To find out what percent of games the team won, we can turn this into a fraction $\frac{17}{25}$ represents the number of games the team won and all the games they played in all.

17 ÷ 25 = 0.68

0.68 × 100 = 68%

Therefore, the team won 68% of the games they played.
