Amy, Doug, and Ginger took a math test. Amy scored 12 points higher than Doug, and Ginger scored twice as many points as Doug. T

lakkis [162]

Amy(A): D + 12
Doug(D):D
Ginger(G):2D
SumOfAll(S)=208 : Total points / sum of all three friends

(D+12)+D+2D=208
D+12+3D=208 - transpose 12 to the right side
4D=208-12
4D = 196 - divide both sides by 4
D=49
Therefore, Doug scored 49
