    A)  20                               

    B)  7

    C)  4                                

    D)  1

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    (b) Total matches = say x = won + loss + draw Won\[=60%\]of \[x=\frac{60}{100}\times x=\frac{6}{10}x:\] loss \[=1\] Now,\[\frac{6}{10}x=12\Rightarrow x=\frac{12\times 10}{6}=20\] \[\therefore \]\[20=12+1+\]draw \[\therefore \] draw\[=7\]
