Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to qualify for the NBA playoffs, the New York Knicks must win at least 3/7 of their remaining games. Number of games remaining to be played is 15.

3/7 × 15 = 6.43

Since it is above 6 and closest to 7,

It means that they must win at least 7 games in order to qualify for the playoffs.

So they were correct by thinking that if they won 7 games from 15, they will be eligible to compete in the playoffs.
