So far team has won =(60/100)*20 = 12 gamesTotal games played in season =5080 percent of the remaining games won = 80 percent of (50-20) = (80/100)*30 = 24 games.Total game won this season = 36So, percent games won in the entire season = (36/50)*100=72%Answer (4)

Answer:  Option '4' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total number of games =50

Firstly, he played 20 games.

Percentage of games they won = 60%

Number of games they won is given by

[tex]\dfrac{60}{100}\times 20\\\\=0.6\times 20\\\\=12[/tex]

Remaining number of games = 50-20=30

Percentage of remaining games they won = 80%

So, number of games they won is given by

[tex]\dfrac{80}{100}\times 30\\\\=0.8\times 30\\\\=24[/tex]

So, total number of games they won is given by

12+24 = 36

So, Percentage of games they won for the entire season will be

[tex]\dfrac{36}{50}\times 100\\\\=36\times 2\\\\=72\%[/tex]

Hence, Option '4' is correct.
