A team plays 93 games in a season. The team won 15  more than twice as many games as they lost.  How many wins and losses did the team have?    PLS HELPPPP THE WORDING IS CONFUSING

Nho · Answer

Answer:67 wins, 26 losses      Step-by-step explanation: They played 93 games. Let L = their losses and w = their wins. They won 15 more than twice as many games they lost so w =  2L + 15. So, 93 = 3L + 15. 93 - 15 = 78. 78 divided by 3 is 26 so they lost 26 games and won the rest of them or 93-26 = 67 wins and 26 losses.
