A baseball team played 154 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was three fourths
. How many games did they win? How many games did they lose?
Let the number of games they won be represented by 3x and the number of games they lost be represented by 4x.
According to the information given, the ratio of games won to games lost is 3x:4x, which simplifies to 3:4.
This means that 3/7 of the total games were won and 4/7 of the total games were lost.
Therefore, the number of games they won = (3/7) * 154 = 66 games
And the number of games they lost = (4/7) * 154 = 88 games.
Therefore, the baseball team won 66 games and lost 88 games.
