Question

Tina and maryann each play tennis. Maryann has won 5 more games than Tina. Is it possible for tina to have won games if the sum of the games maryann and tina have won together 29

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes; Tina could have won 12 games because 12 + 5 is less than 29.

Tina won 5 more games, and there's already 12. So 5 + 12 is less than 29.

It's possible for them to have gotten 29.

Answer 2

Answer:

Tina won 5 games more than maryann, and the sum of their games is 29.. 29-5/2= 12

Maryann won 12 games while Tina won 12+5= 17 games.
