D.13
what is .35*20?
To find out how many games Gordy did not play, we need to calculate the number of games he played based on the percentage given.
We know that Gordy played in 65% of the 20 games this season. To find out how many games he played, we can use the following calculation:
Number of games Gordy played = 65% of 20 games
To calculate the number of games Gordy played, we multiply the percentage (65%) by the total number of games (20):
Number of games Gordy played = 65/100 * 20
= 0.65 * 20
= 13 games
Therefore, Gordy played in 13 games out of the 20 games this season. To find out how many games he did not play, we can subtract the number of games he played (13) from the total number of games (20):
Number of games Gordy did not play = Total number of games - Number of games Gordy played
= 20 - 13
= 7 games
Therefore, Gordy did not play in 7 games. Thus, the correct answer is B. 7.
