Question

One team won 19 out of every 20 games played, and a second team won 7 out every 8 games played which team has higher percentage of wins?

Answer 1

Let the two teams be $A$ and $B$.

No. of games played by team $A=20$

No. of games by team $A=19$

Win $\%$ of team $A=\frac{19}{20}\times 100=85\%$

No. of games played by team $B=8$

No. of games won by team $B=7$

Win $\%$ of team $B=\frac{7}{8}\times 100=87.5\%$

Hence the team $B$ has higher percentage of wins.
