Question

30 POINTS!!! Kent won 25% of the games he played on Saturday. If he lost 12 games on Saturday, and no game ended in a tie, how many games did he win?

Answer 1

Answer:

He won 4 games

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage of games he lost= 75%

Let the total number of games be $x$

75% of $x$ = 12

$\frac{75x}{100}$ = 12

75$x$= 12 x 100

$x$= $\frac{1200}{75}$

 =16

Number of games he won = 16-12

                                            = 4
