Mathematics - how do you find the number of games to win in a row to get a 60% win rate from 10+x/25+x = 0.6? how to solve?

Consider 'x' to be the number of games one can win in a row. \frac{10 +x}{25 + x} = \frac{60}{100} = 0.6 10 + x = 0.6 ( 25 + x) \Rightarrow 10 + x = 15 + 0.6 x \Rightarrow x - 0.6 x = 15 - 10 \Rightarrow 0.4 x = 5 so the value of x will be 12.5
