In August,a cricket team that played 120 matches won 20% of the games it played.After a continous winning streak,this team raised its average to 52%.How many matches did the team win to attain this average?
1.40 2.52 3.68 4.80

• let the no of matches played more=x
  so,
  (120+x)*52/100=24+x
  by solving we get x=80

• (20/100)*120
  (24+x) / (120+x) = 0.52, where x is the number of games played and 24 is 20% of 120
  24 + x = 0.52(120 + x)
  24+x = 62.4 + 0.52x
  0.48x = 62.4-24
  0.48x=38.4
  x=38.4/0.48
  x=80

• the answer is 80
  we know that 20% of 120 is 24
  so,
  52/100 = (24+x)/(120+x)
  13/25 = (24+x)/(120+x)
  1560+13x = 600+25x
  1560-600 = 25x-13x
  960 = 12x
  so, x=80
