Answer:

<em></em>

<em>The team must win 2 games to have a win : loss ratio o 2.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

  • <u>Ratio win : loss, r</u>:

       r = total wins / total losses

       

  • <u>Total wins, Tw</u>:

        Call n the number of new wins:

        Tw =number of wins until so far + number of new win = 6 + n

  • <u>Total losses, Tl</u>:

        Tl = number of losses so far + number of new losses = 4 + 0 = 4

  • <u>Target ratio</u>:

        r = 2 ⇒ Tw / Tl = (6 + n) / 4 = 2

Solve for n:

  • (6 + n ) = 4 × 2
  • 6 + n = 8
  • n = 8 - 6
  • n = 2

Hence,<em> the team must win 6 more games.</em>

  • <u>Verification</u>: (6 + 2 ) / 4 = 8 / 4 = 2, which is the target ratio.
