Answer 1

8 teams played in a volleyball tournament.

Explanation:

Given:

28 matches were played in a volleyball tournament each team playing one against each of others  

To find:  

How many teams were there?

Solution:  

Let n be the number of teams participating in the tournament

The total number of matches played is such that each team is playing at least once against the other team.

Hence the total number of games played will be, $n \times \frac{n-1}{2}=28$

$n \times(n-1)=56$

Hence n = 8, therefore 8 teams will play 28 matches.
