A basketball team has won 50 games of 75 played. The team still has 45 games to play. How many of the remaining games must the team win in order to win 60% of all games played during the season?

Explanation

The team has played 75 games and will play 45 more games.
75+45 = 120
\(60 \% \text { of } 120=0.6 \times 120=72\) The team must win 72 games, and It has already won 50 games. Therefore, the team must win 72-50 = 22 more games.
