Question

the Vikings play 36 games this year at midseason they had won 16 games. How many of the remaining games must they win in order to win at least 80% of all their games

Answer 1

80% of their games are 28.8, or 29 games (since they need to win at least 80%). They have already won 16. 29-16 is 13.

Therefore, they need to win 13 more games.

P.S. The midseason statement is irrelevant.

Answer 2

This question is solved by proportions.

First, we find how many the Vikings have to win in the entire season, then we find how many they have won at mid-season and how many they have to win at the end of the year.

36 games, have to win 80%.

They have to win:

0.8*36 = 28.8, rounding up to 29.

Mid-season:

Mid-season is 36/2 = 18 games, they have won 16.

Remaining games:

They are 16 wins, need 29.

29 - 16 = 13

Thus, the Vikings must win at least 13 of the remaining games must they win in order to win at least 80% of all their games.
