\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "He gave the answer for the case, when the teams play only   O N C E   each with the others.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "For this understanding, his answer    $\"C%5B12%5D%5E2\"$ = $\"%2812%2A11%29%2F2\"$ = 6*11 = 66   is correct.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "But if the teams play   T W I C E   each with the others, then this number, 66, must be DOUBLED.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "            So, the   CORRECT ANSWER   is   66*2 = 132   in this problem.
