A volleyball team scored 6 more points in its first game than in its third game. In the second game, the team scores 12 points. The total number of points scored was less than 52. What is the greatest number of points the team could have scored in its third game?

14

Step-by-step explanation:

total subtract the second game score to get the total of 40 points for the first and third game.

then take 40 divining by 2 to have the average of each game.

but we know that the first game scored 6 more points than the third game.

so we take 20 plus 6 gets 26 points for the first game.

then take the total of 40 points subtract to the 26 points of the first game to get the answer of 14 points for the third game.

so the greatest number of points the team could have in its third game is 14 points.

12
