    Answer:

    68 games

    Step-by-step explanation:

    According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

    Games won = 85%

    Game lost = 12

    Here, 100% – 85% = 12

    15% = 12

    or 1% = 0.8

    So, total games played (100%) = 80 games

    Now, number of games won = Total games – Games lost

    = 80 – 12

    = 68 games

    Hence, Kelly’s team wins 68 games in the season.
