Question

Last year Golden State Warriors won 80% of the first 15 matches. Then they won the rest of the three matches. What percent of all matches did they win?

Answer 1

Answer:

83.33%

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to evaluate 80% of the first 15 matches in order to determine the number of watches out of 15 which they won.

80 % of 15 = 80/100 * 15 = 12

12 matches out of the first 15 were won.

Since the team won the rest of the 3 remaining matches, the total number of matches won becomes;

12 + 3 = 15

The team thus won 15 matches out of a total of 15 + 3 =18 matches .

The percent of all matches won is ;

15/18 * 100 = 83.33%
