Indian Economy - Understanding the basics of Indian economic system

A team lost 25 % of the matches it played. If it won 15 matches, find the number of matches it played.

none of these

Percentage of matches lost = 25 %

Therefore Percentage of matches won (100 - 25) % = 75 %

Let the number of matches played be m.

Then 75 % of m = 15

75/100 × m = 15

m = (15 × 100)/75 %

m = (1500)/75 %

m = 20 %

Therefore, the total number of matches played is 20.

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
