in a basketball game 96 points were scored the winners scored twice as many as the loser how many points did each team scored??

Verified Answer :

set up an equation for this.  x will be the score of the losing team.
x+2x=96.  Then solve for x.  3x=96.  x=96/3 x=32.  So the losing team
got 32 points and the winning team got 64

the other team would have only scored 48 points.
