Answer:

  • Won = 88 games
  • Lost = 24 games

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of games for the session is 112 so all the wins and losses should add up to 112.

Assume that the number of times they lost is x. The number of times they won would then be: 16 + 3x

Total expression is therefore:

16 + 3x + x = 112

16 + 4x = 112

4x = 112 - 16

x = 96/4

x = 24

They lost 24 games. Number of games won is:

= 112 - 24

= 88 games
