A.
12
B.
14
C.
15
D.
27

D.27

They already won 12 games (80% of 15%) and need or win 15 more.

Check: 15+12 =27 =90%

30 30

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find out how many games they won:

x/15 = 80/100

Cross multiply

x × 100 = 15 × 80

100x = 1200

x = 12

They won 12 out of 15 games

Second, find out how many wins out of 30 games are needed to have a 90% winning percentage

x/30 = 90/100

Cross multiply

x × 100 = 30 × 90

100x = 2700

x = 27

27 game wins are needed to have a 90% winning percentage

Lastly, find the difference between 27 wins (total needed) and 12 wins (total number of wins they currently have)

27 - 12 = 15

They need to win 15 more games to have a 90% winning percentage
