13) A soccer team played 28 games and won 4 out of every 7 games. There were no tied games.
A) How many games did they lose?
The soccer team lost 12 games. We know that 7x4 is 28 so 7-4 equals 3 and times that by 4 to get 12
B) What was the team's win-loss ratio? Explain your answer.
16:12 or 4:3, We know that the team lost 12 games, so subtract 12 from 28(total games) to get 16 (wins) So it's 16:12. (win to loss)
C) If this trend continues, how many loses would you expect the team to have once they have won 20 games?
