5 A baseball team wins 60% of its home fixtures and 30% of its away fixtures. In a season where it plays 18 home matches and 15 away matches, how many matches would it be expected to
win?

First find 30% of 60=18.

Now you know the team won the next x games, so the number won is 18+x.

The team’s average now is 50%, so find 50% of the new number of games, i.e. 60+x games.

The number won=50% of games played so we get:

18+x=(60+x)/2

Solving this, we find x=24, so they have to win 24 games in a row. Hopefully i helped
