Question

There are 260 players on 20 teams at a basketball tournament. How many players are on each team?

Answer 1

There should be 13 players on each team.

(Which is weird because its usually 15 players)

Explanation:

Anyways all we have to do to find out how many player are on each team is to divide the total amount of player by the teams.

260 ÷ 20 = 13

So, there are 13 players on each team.

Answer 2

There are 20 teams, so all we have to do is share those 260 players between all 20 of the teams equally, and we can do that by dividing 260 by 20.

Therefore, 260/20 = 13

So, there are 13 players on each basketball team.
