Question

3. Darren won Round 3 of the game. Sherri is wondering if she lost Round 3 by 5 points or by 25 points. Explain to Sherri how many points Darren won Round3 by and show the mathematics you used to justify your answer

Answer 1

It is required to find the number of points Darren won round 3 by.

From the table, it is given that Darren had 15 points in round 3, and Sherri had -10 points.

To find the number of points Darren won round 3 by, find the difference in their points for round 3:

`15-(-10)=15+10=25`

Hence, Darren won round 3 by 25 points.

Explain to Sherri that Darren won round 3 by 25 points and that this can be found by subtracting his points for round 3 from Darren's points from round 3.
