Each baseball team has nine players and each football team has eleven players. Five schools have both baseball and football teams. Three schools have only a baseball team. How many players are there for all eight schools?

Respuesta :

Hello! And thank you for your question!

We are trying to find the total of all baseball & football players for all 8 schools.

Baseball:

9 players times 8 schools = 72 players

Football:

11 players times 5 schools = 55 players.

Finally add all the players together:

72 + 55 = 127 players

Final Answer:

127 players
Hey there,

Answer:

School with baseball only : 
9 x 3 = 27

School with football and baseball:
Football = 5 x 11
              = 55
Baseball = 5 x 9
              = 45
Total players = 45 + 55+ 27
                     = 127

Hope this helps :D
