Together, teammates Pedro and Ricky got 2679 base hits last season. Pedro had 283 more hits than Ricky. How many hits did each player have?
Pedro had base hits

Respuesta :

Answer:

Pedro: 1481 Base hits

Ricky: 1198 Base hits

Step-by-step explanation:

First, take the total amount of base hits last season 2679, then subtract how many more Pedro has 283.

2679 - 283 = 2396 now divide the sum in half  2396 ÷ 2 = 1198 that gives you how many each player has, you're then going to add the amount that you took off to only Pedras total since he had 283 more

Pedro: 1198 + 283 = 1481

Ricky: 1198
