Given : The Marauders fooseball team is improving with each game.

The first game they scored no points, but the second game they scored some goals.

In their third game they scored 8 more points than the second.

Now in their last game they scored three times as many points as their third. Altogether they scored 117 points

To Find :  How many points did the Marauders score in the third game

Solution:

1st  Game  = 0

2nd Game  =  x - 8   assuming 3rd game  = x

3rd Game  =  x      

4th game  = 3x  

Total =  x - 8  + x  + 3x  = 117

=>5x  = 125

=> x  = 25

They scored 25 goals in 3rd game
