So this ratio has 5 parts (the 3 and 2 added make 5). We take the total games and divide by the total parts of the ratio
20/5=4

We now know that each part of the ratio is equal to 4 games. So we multiply by the parts

3*4 = 12
2*4 = 8

Therefor our ratio is 12 to 8 or 12 wins to 8 losses

The team won 12 games

Hope that helps.
