Answer:

20 games

Step-by-step explanation:

  • 60% is the same as [tex]\frac{3}{5}[/tex].
  1. Divide 12 games by 3 to get one fifth of the total games instead of three fifths of the total games.  One fifth of the total games is four games.
  2. Now multiply the 4 games by 5 to get five fifths of the total games, or all of them.
