Answer:
Jill's team lost 11 matches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jill's team drawn matches = 16
Points earned for the matches drawn = 16
Total points earned = 55
Therefore, points earned by winning the matches = 55 - 16 = 39
Total matches won by Jill's team = [tex]\frac{\text{Points earned by winning the matches}}{\text{Points earned by winning one match}}[/tex]
                            = [tex]\frac{39}{3}[/tex]
                            = 13
Total matches won + matches drawn = 16 + 13 = 29
Matches lost by the team = 40 - 29 = 11
Therefore, Jill's team lost 11 matches.
