The greatest score could they have in the 3rd game is 10 runs

Step-by-step explanation:

- The team played 3 games

- In the first game they scored 18 runs

- In the second they scored 5 fewer runs than the third

- The team scored less then 34 runs in all three games

- We need to find the greatest number of runs they could have in

the 3rd game

- Assume that the team scored x runs in the third game

∵ The team scored 18 runs in the 1st game

∵ The team scored x runs in the 3rd game

∵ The score of the 2nd game is 5 less than the third game

∴ The score of the 2nd game is x - 5 runs

- The team scored in the three games less than 34 runs

∵ The total score in the three games = 18 + x - 5 + x

∵ The total score is less than 34 runs

∴ 18 + x - 5 + x < 34

- Add the like terms in the L.H.S

∴ 2x + 13 < 34

- Subtract 13 from both sides

∴ 2x < 21

- Divide both sides by 2

∴ x < 10.5

∴ The greatest integer less than 10.5 is 10

∴ The greatest number of runs in the 3rd game is 10 runs

The greatest score could they have in the 3rd game is 10 runs
