A softball team wins 5/8 of their 32 games. How many games did they win? How many did they lose?
they won 20 games and lost 12
5/8 = 0.625
0.625 x 32 = 20
32-20 = 12
Elly's softball team has won 20 games and lost 5. What is her team's ratio of losses to win
To find out how many games the softball team won, we need to calculate 5/8 of 32.
To do that, multiply 32 by 5/8:
(32 * 5) / 8 = 160 / 8 = 20.
Therefore, the softball team won 20 games.
To determine the number of games they lost, subtract the number of games won from the total number of games played:
32 - 20 = 12.
So, the softball team lost 12 games.
