Sagot :

Answer:

Number of game lose = 29 games (Approx)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Winning part = 5/12

Total game = 49

Find:

Number of game lose

Computation:

Lose part = 1 - 5/12

Lose part = 7/12

Number of game lose = Total game x Lose part

Number of game lose = 49 x [7/12]

Number of game lose = 28.58

Number of game lose = 29 games (Approx)

They would lose 29 games if they play 49 games

They won 5 out of their first 12 games.

Hence the number of game lost in their first 12 games = 12 - 5 = 7  games

The rate at which they lose = 7 games / 12 games

Given that they played 49 games, hence:

Number of games lost = (7 games / 12 games) * 49 = 28.58

They would lose 29 games if they play 49 games
