1 answer

To solve this problem, we can first set up an equation. Let x be the number of games Ahmadullah's basketball team played last season. According to the problem, Ahmadullah's team will play 12 more games than 13, which represents the number of games they played last season. So the equation is:

x + 12 = 21

We can now solve for x by subtracting 12 from both sides of the equation:

x = 21 - 12

x = 9

Therefore, Ahmadullah's basketball team played 9 games last season.
