If the varsity team has won 6 out of 9 games halfway through the season, they have won 6/9 = 2/3 of their games so far.
If they continue to win games at the same rate, they will win 2/3 of the remaining 9 games in the season, which is 2/3 * 9 = 6 games.
Therefore, the varsity team will win a total of 6 + 6 = 12 games in an 18-game season.
