Question

Three boys were playing balls. Ben's ball bounced eight more times than Menard's . Menard's ball bounced half as many times as Diego's. Diego's ball bounced eight times. How many times did Ben's ball bounced?

Answer 1

12 bounce

Explanation:

Let :

Number of Menard's bounce = x

Ben's bounce = x + 8

Diego's bounce = 2x

If Diego's bounce = 8

Then ;

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

Ben's bounce = x + 8

Ben's bounce = 4 + 8 = 12
