Abaseball team played 32 games and lost 8. katy was the catcher in 5/8 of the winning games and 1/4 of nthe losing games.
a. what fraction of the games did the team win?
b. in how many games did katy play catcher?

fraction of the games did the team win is =

Katy play game  = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

baseball team played = 32 games

lost = 8

Katy catcher = 5/8 of winning

Katy catcher =  1/4  of losing

to find out

What fraction of the games did the team win and  how many games did Katy play

solution

we know total game = 32 and lost 8

so win is total - lost = 32 - 8 = 24

so

fraction of the games did the team win is =  

fraction of the games did the team win is =

and

so total game 24 winning is  

so katy winning is  

katy winning = 3 × 5 = 15

and

losing  

total lose game 8

so Katy  lose = 8 ×   = 2

so

Katy play game = 15 + 2 = 17
