During the first week of baseball season, the Boston Red Sox won 6 out of 8 games. How many of the 162 regular season games must they win to maintain this ratio?

Respuesta :

6/8

162/8 = 20.25

20.25 x 6 = 121.5

Answer: 122 (rounded up)
if they won 6 out of 8 games, then they lost 2 out of 8 games

6/8 (162) = 972/8 = 121.5 <== they would need to win this
2/8 (162) = 324/8 = 40.5
