Question

Sona heads a record of winning 2 boxing matches every 3 she loses. If she had 45 matches last year how many did she win?

Answer 1

Sona wins every 2 boxing matches for every 3 she loses.
That is, in a total of 5 matches, she wins 2 matches and losses 3 matches.
She played 45 matches last year.
ie,
9*5 matches.
she won 2 matches in 5 games.
so,
in a total of 45 matches, she won 9*2 = 18 matches

Another method;
in a total of 5 matches, she wins 2 matches and losses 3 matches
So her succes ratio = 2/5
Now in total of 45 matches ,number of matches she won = 45 *(2/5)
=18

Hope this helps.
