Let's represent the number of games they played last season as "x".
According to the problem, Ahmadullah's team will play 12 more games than 1/3 of the number of games they played last season, which can be written as: 1/3*x + 12.
We also know that they will play a total of 21 games this season.
To find the value of "x", we can set up the equation: 1/3*x + 12 = 21.
Now let's solve for "x":
1/3*x = 21 - 12,
1/3*x = 9,
x = 9 * 3,
x = 27.
Therefore, they played 27 games last season.
