Let x be the number of games Ahmadullah's basketball team played last season.
According to the problem, this season they will play 12 more games than 1/3 of the number of games they played last season:
21 = x/3 + 12
Subtracting 12 from both sides, we get:
9 = x/3
Multiplying both sides by 3, we get:
x = 27
Therefore, Ahmadullah's basketball team played 27 games last season.
