During the 2007 baseball season, wade was up to bat 10 more times than his teammate dwight. dwight batted 17 fewer times than another teammate, ellis. the three players were up to bat a total of 1650 times. how many times did ellis come to bat?

X+17=number of times Ellis comes to bat
x=number of times Dwight comes to bat
x+10 =number of times Wade comes to bat.

we can suggest this equation:
(x+17)+(x)+(x+10)=1650
3x+27=1650
3x=1650-27
3x=1623
x=1623/3
x=541

Therefore:
x+17=number of times Ellis comes to bat:  541+17=558
x=number of times Dwight comes to bat:  541
x+10 =number of times Wade comes to bat:  541+10=551

Ellis comes to bat 558 times.

Did u want to find the value of x?
