A baseball team has won 8 games and lost 6 games. If the team continues to have the ratio of wins and losses, how many wins will the team have after playing 21 games?
They have won 8/14 of their games
Thus (8/14) x 21 = (4/7) x 21 = 4 x 3 = 12 games
they have 12 winning games after playing 21 matches
given
W=8
L=6
T=W+L=14(2*7)
also ratio(W:L)=8:6=4:3(4+3=7)
