    The number of Win Games = 92

    The number of Loss Games = 70

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given in question as:

    The total number of games Played = 162

    Let the number of Win games = x

    And The number of losses games = y

    SO, x + y = 162 ... 1

    According to question

    x = 2 y - 48 ... 2

    Fromm eq 1 and 2

    (2y - 48) + y = 162

    3y - 48 = 162

    or, 3y = 210

    SO, Y = 70

    Similarly x = 2 (70) - 48

    I. e x = 140 - 48 = 92

    Hence The number of Win Games = 92

    And The number of Loss Games = 70 Answer
