Will rates 18 points a game and is the all-time scoring leader on his team with 483 points. Here averages 21 points a game and is currently second on the all-time scorers list with 462 points. If both players continue to play at the same rate, how many more games will it take until Tom and Will have scored the same number of total points?

Respuesta :

7 games....
18×7=126
483+126=609
21×7=147
462+147=609
After 7 games each would have 609 points.

Will has 483 points now and scores 18 points a game.

Tom has 462 points now and scores 21 points a game.

How many more games till they have same total?

The equation to solve:

483 + 18x = 462 + 21x , where x is the number of games

Solve:

21 + 18x = 21x

21 = 3x

7 = x

It will take 7 more games.
