Question

At a track meet, Mountain View School scored twice as many points as Seaview School. Randerson Ridge scored three times as many points as Mountain View. Altogether there were 198 points scored in the track meet. What were the point totals for each school?

Answer 1

Answer:

Seaview - x

Mountain view - 2x

Randerson Ridge - 3 * 2x = 6x

6x + 2x + x = 198

9x = 198

x = 22 (Seaview)

2x = 44 (Mountain View)

6x = 132 (Randerson Ridge)
