Answer 1

A soccer team played 160 games and won 65 percent of them. How many games did it win?

1) Find one percent of the total number of matches:

160 : 100 = 1,6 (1%)

2) Find how many games is 65 percent (this will be the desired number of wins, which we will write in the answer)

1,6 * 65 = 104 (win)

Answer: 104 win

Answer 2

To find out how many games the soccer team won, you can use the percentage of games won and the total number of games played.

Step 1: Calculate the number of games won as a percentage of 160 games: Number of games won = 65% of 160

Step 2: Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing it by 100: 65% = 65/100 = 0.65

Step 3: Multiply the decimal by the total number of games played: Number of games won = 0.65 * 160

Now, let's do the math:

Number of games won = 0.65 * 160 Number of games won = 104

The soccer team won 104 games out of the 160 games they played.
