If there were
x 1-pt
y 2-pt
z 3-pt shots, then we know that
x+2y+3z = 289
y = 6z
x = 2z
Now do what you will with that, since you didn't ask any questions.

Let's use the following variables:
- Let x be the number of points from 3-pointers
- Then 8x is the number of points from 2-pointers
- And 2x is the number of points from free throws
Then we have:
x + 8x + 2x = 357
11x = 357
x = 357/11
So Brooklyn scored:
- 357/11 ≈ 32.45 points from 3-pointers
- 8(357/11) ≈ 259.64 points from 2-pointers
- 2(357/11) ≈ 64.91 points from free throws
- Let x be the number of points from 3-pointers
- Then 8x is the number of points from 2-pointers
- And 2x is the number of points from free throws
Then we have:
x + 8x + 2x = 357
11x = 357
x = 357/11
So Brooklyn scored:
- 357/11 ≈ 32.45 points from 3-pointers
- 8(357/11) ≈ 259.64 points from 2-pointers
- 2(357/11) ≈ 64.91 points from free throws
