Question

16 teams In a football league, each team plays each other twice , how many games are there in the football league in total ?

Answer 1

120 games.

Explanation:

We have been given that there are 16 teams in a football league. Each team plays each other twice. We are asked to find total number of games are there in the football league.

We will use formula
`(n(n-1))/(2)` to solve our given problem.

Each team will play matches with one team less as it will not play match with itself.

We will divide all number of matches by 2 to avoid repetition.

`(16(16-1))/(2)=(16(15))/(2)=8*15=120`

Therefore, there are 120 games in the football league.
