Question

Gray and Brenda and Jack went bowling together. Bryant's score was 55. Jacks score was exactly double bryant's. Brenda has 13 fewer points than Jack. What was Brenda's score?

Answer 1

Bryant's score is 55 (given)

Jack's score is twice the score of Bryant, so it's

`55\cdot 2 = 110`

Brenda's score is 13 less than Jack, so it's

`110-13 = 97`
