Sue scored a total of 35 points in two games.she scored 6 times as many points in the second game than in the first.how many more points did she score in the second game.

Answer 1

Okay,
Both games are: 35
First game: ?
Second game: 6 more than the first.
So,
first we subtract 6 from 35.
35 - 6 = 29
Divide by 2.
49 divided by 2 = 14.5
Add the 6 point= 14.5 + 6 = 20.5
To make sure add.
First game: 14.5
Second game:20.5
14.5 + 20.5 = 35
