Okay so we need to find out the percentage of the games that he won. Lets express it as a fraction first and then will express it as a fraction.
Since he won 11 and lost 9, that means 11+9=20 games in total this season.
From this 20 games, he won 11 of them, so in a fraction the winning games are 11 / 20.
In order to express it as a percentage, the denominator should be 100.
100/20=5
So lets multiply the nominator and the denominator with 5.
11*5=55
20*5=100
So 11 / 20 = 55/100
55/100 = 55%
