Question

The average number of points a basketball team scored for

three games was 63 points. In two games, they scored the same number of points,
which was 6 points more than they scored in the third game. Write and solve an
equation to find the number of points they scored in each game.

Answer 1

Average is

(2x + X+6)/3=63
(2x+x+6)= 189
3x+6=189
3x=183 61

X=61
Scores for the game are: 61, 61, and 67
