Problem 13 Medium

Peter, Emma, and Kyler played chess with each other. Peter won 4 games and lost 2 games. Emma won 3 games and lost 3 games. If Kyler lost 3 games, how many games did he win?

  • A.

    0

  • B.

    1

  • C.

    2

  • D.

    3

  • E.

    4

Answer:B

Given n games, there must be a total of n wins and n losses. Hence, 4 + 3 + K = 2 + 3 + 3 where K is Kyler's wins. K = 1, so our final answer is \boxed{\textbf{(B)}\ 1}.
