Our badminton team has finished 75% of its season. So far, we have won 35% of the games we played. What percent of the remainder of our games must we win in order to finish the season with the same number of wins as losses?
Let the total number of games to be played = N
To have the same number of wins as losses you need.50N wins
So far....you have played .75N
Number you have remaining = .25N
So far....you have won .35 * .75N = .2625N
So....the number of remaining games you must win to have the same number of wins as losses is .50N - .26.25N = .2375N
So
Number of remaining wins you need / Number of games left =
.2375N / .25N =
.2375 / .25 =
.95 =
95% of your remaining games
