Question

To win a basketball game, one team scored 146 points. They made a total of 56 two-pointers and three-pointers. How many of the baskets were worth 2 points, and how many were 3 pointers?

Answer 1

First,, you would take the 56 two pointers the team made and multiply 56 by 2 to find out how many actual points the team made with just the 2 pointers
56 x 2 = 112
Then,, you will subtract 112 from 146 to see how many points are left 
146 - 112 = 34
That shows that 112 of the points came from 2 pointers and 34 came from 3 pointers :)

Answer 2

There need to be 34 three-pointers and 22 two pointers (pls brainliest)
