The team scored twenty-three points in total. This word sum can be worked out as follows:
Three field goals worth three points each is equal to nine points (3 x 3 = 9). Two touchdowns were scored; each touchdown is worth six points. This equals twelve points (2 x 6 = 12). Lastly, the team was awarded a bonus point for each touchdown they scored. They scored two touchdowns so they were awarded two extra points (2 x 1 = 2). Therefore, we have three subtotals: nine for the field goals; twelve for the touchdowns and two for the bonus points. The equation for this word sum is 9 + 12 + 2 = 23
