Answer: a) 91 pins b) No.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of final bowling score of his friend = 105

Number of final bowling score of him be 'x'.

According to question, his final bowling score is 14 pins less than his friends final score, it becomes,


105-x=14\\\\105-14=x\\\\91=x

a) the final score of his is 91 pins.

b.) Your friend made a spare in the tenth frame. Did you? Explain.

No, as his friend has 14 pins more than him, so, he could not do this.

Hence, a) 91 pins b) No.
