Question

Margaret bowled two games for a total score of 307 points her score for the first game was 7 points lower than her score for the second game what was her score for the second game

Answer 1

Subtract the point difference from the total:

307-7 = 300

Divide that by the number of games:

300 / 2 = 150

Now add the point difference to that: 150 +7 = 157.

So her 2 scores were 150 and 157.

Her first game was lower so, her second game was the highest score which is 157
