Given that if there are x teams in a league and each team plays every other team​  twice, then the total number of games​ (n) to be played is given by

[tex]n=x^2-x[/tex]

If
a chess league has 15 teams the total number of games to be played if each team plays every other team​ twice is given by

[tex]n=15^2-15 \\ \\ =225-15=210[/tex]
