9 more than y is an expression so it would be 9+y
Ron has 22 cards
number one tip in math, try to create equation!
set number of cards Ron has as x (always set x as what you are looking for)
set number of cards Tori has as (x-9) because if Ron has 9 more cards than Tori that's same thing as saying Tori has 9 cards less than Ron
Number of cards Tori and Ron has need to equal 35
Therefore,
x + (x-9) = 35
Solve:
2x-9=35
bring over 9 to other side
2x=44
divide both sides by 2
x=22
So number of cards Ron has is 22
They won 6/11 games.
When you add the games they won, lost, and tied you see that they played a total of 11 games. It tells you that they won 6 games so you would put 6 as the numerator and 11 as the denominator and get 6/11.
