Answer / manik
As, 30% of 60 games
=18 games that are won.
Since, the team has to attain
50% from 30%
ie 20% of 60 = 12
Hence, the team has to win
12 games in a row.

Answer / mesbå mílon
Total game played=60
Total gam e won= 60*30/100
=18
Now The team plays x games and win all of those to increase the
average to 50%.
ATQ,
(60+x)* 50/100=18+x
or, (60+x)/2=18+x
or, 6i0+x=36+2x
or, 24=x
