Question 1001243: In a championship basketball game Paula Zimmerman made twice as many free throws as Maria kaminsky if the total number of free throws made by both women was 12 find how many free throws Paula made. Answer by fractalier(6550) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Call the number Maria made, x.
Then Paula made 2x.
Together they made 12, or
x + 2x = 12
3x=12
x=4
2x = 8 for Paula
