When two people play a game, each player starts with 10 points. The winner of each round gets 3 points and the loser of each round loses 3 points. William and Abigail play the game. William wins exactly four rounds, and Abigail ends up with16 points. How many rounds did they play altogether?

10 rounds
After losing 4 rounds, Abigail’s score would have been -2, to reach 16 points she would’ve needed 6 wins, add that to William’s 4 wins and you get 10 rounds
