Question

Indian cricket team won 4 more matches then it lost with Sri Lanka. If it won 3/5 oF its matches how many matches did India play?

Answer 1

Let the number of matches India played = x.

Given that the number of matches India won = 3x/5.

Then the number of matches India didn't win = 1 - 3x/5

= 2x/5.


Given that Indian cricket team won 4 more matches than it lost with srilanka

3x/5 = 2x/5 + 4

3x/5 - 2x/5 = 4

x/5 = 4

x = 20.
