coach currans team has won 5 times and lost 2 times. He hopes that his team can keep this same ratio of wins to losses. If the team has 10 losses, how many wins would they need to keep the record

The answer is that the team has to have 25 wins.

Step-by-step explanation:

since the ratio is 2 losses to 5 wins, if you divide 10 by 2, you get 5. Multiply 5 by 5, since it is the other side of the ration, and you'll get 25 wins.

25:10 = 5:2
