Meg Tim and John are playing a game Make has six times as many points as Tim John has 54 more points than him Meg has 18 points how many points does John have

Answer 1

Let's break down the information given in the problem step by step.

1. Let’s denote:

   • Meg's points as \( M \)
   • Tim's points as \( T \)
   • John's points as \( J \)

2. According to the problem:

   • Meg has 18 points:
     \( M = 18 \)

3. We know Meg has six times as many points as Tim:
   \( M = 6T \)

   Substituting Meg's points: \[ 18 = 6T \]

   To find Tim's points (\( T \)): \[ T = \frac{18}{6} = 3 \]

4. John has 54 more points than Tim: \[ J = T + 54 \]

   Substituting Tim's points: \[ J = 3 + 54 = 57 \]

Thus, John has 57 points.
