A baseball team played 161 regular season games. The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was 5/2 How many games did they​ win? How many games did they​ lose?

Respuesta :

115 must be the one

Answer:

The team won 115 games and lost 46 games in the regular season

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of the number of games they won to the number of games they lost was 5/2. This means that in every 7 games played, the team won 5 but lost 2.

As such where 161 games were played all through the season,

The team won

= 5/7 × 161

= 115 games

The team lost

= 2/7 × 161

= 46 games
