Question

if a baseball team has lost 50 matches out of the 120 matches played in total, find out their winning percentage?​

Answer 1

To find the amount of matches won:

120 – 50 = 70

So the baseball team has won 70 matches.

To convert this to a percentage:

(Matches won / Total matches ) x 100

(70/120) x 100 = 58.3% (rounded to 1 decimal place)
