A baseball team played 32 games and lost 8. Katy was a catcher in 5/8 of the winning game and 1/4 of the losing games. In how many games did Katy play catcher?

32 - 8 = 24. This means that there were 24 winning games and 8 losing games.

24 multiplied by 5/8 = 15. Katy was a catcher in 15 of the winning games.

8 multiplied by 1/4 = 2. Katy was a catcher in 2 of the losing games.

In total, Katy was a catcher in 17 of the games.

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
