Ahmadullahs basketball team will play 21 games this season. That’s 12 games more than 1/3 of the number of games they played last season. How many gam3s did they play last season

1 answer

Let's call the number of games they played last season "x".
We know that Ahmadullah's basketball team will play 12 more games than 1/3 of the number of games they played last season, which can be represented as:

x/3 + 12 = 21

To find the value of x, we can subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

x/3 = 9

Next, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 3 to isolate x:

x = 27

Therefore, Ahmadullah's basketball team played 27 games last season.
