Can you please explain this in detail so I can write it down and know how to do it for future reference?

number of games tied: x
number of games won : x+11
2(x+11) + x = 64

W=L+11
2W+1*L=64
Now, put L+11 in for W on the bottom equation.
2(L+11)+L=64
solve for L
2W+1*L=64
Now, put L+11 in for W on the bottom equation.
2(L+11)+L=64
solve for L
