The school team won 9 games and lost 6. What percent of the games did the team lose?

Sagot :

To find out how many total games they played:
6 games + 9 games=15 games

Find the percent of the loss:
6 divided by 15=0.4

Convert to percent:
0.4 x 100=40%

Hope this helps =)
In order to know the percentage we need to find the number of losses over the total number of games so:
[tex] \frac{6}{6+9}= \frac{6}{15} =0.4=40[/tex]%

Therefore the team lost 40% of the games.
