A basketball team has won 50 games of 75 played. The team still has 45 games to play. How many of the remaining games must the team win in order to win 60% of all games played during the season?
C'mon!
How many games in a season?
How many games do they have to win to win 60% of the season?
If they have won 50 of them, how many more do they have to win to have win 60% of the season.

Please try these first
This problem, as well as several others you have posted, are pre-Algebra. I have trouble believing that you are asking for help in Trig one moment and pre-Algebra the next. Are you trying these problems yourself before posting them? I love helping people when they honestly have a problem they can't solve, but if you are posting all of your review questions without giving them an honest effort, I think you are abusing the board.
hey
engineer,
See my reply concerning your statement.

Totally agree with you, engineer.
It's a simple problem. I think fdrhs should try himself or herself first.
