Question

It was the final game of the season
and, with a little bit of luck, Peter's
football team could win the
championship.
His team needed to beat John's team
by three goals, but they also needed to
score atleast 4 more goals than David's
team, who was playing Ben's team.
David's team beat Ben's team by 1 goal.
If Ben's team scored 1 goal in each
half, what is the closest score Peter's
team could beat David's team by to
win the championship?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Look, I am really very nincompoop in league points questions, but I'll give it a try. As the score of John's team is not clear here, so in the basis of David's team, it looks like David's team scored 3 goals as Ben's team scored 1 in both halves. It is given that David's team beat Ben's team by 1 goal. So we can say that David's team scored 3 goals. And as Peter's team needed to score atleast 4 more goals than David's team, so the final closest score of Peter's team should be (4 + 3) = 7.
