A baseball team played 162 games. They won 44 more games than they lost. How many games did they lose?

Hey, the answer is 59 I think. 'Cause it's said they played 162 games, they won 44 more games than they lost. So they won 103 times, and lost games 59 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Total game played = 162

Let the games lost be = x

Game won = x + 44

x + x + 44 = 162

2x = 162 - 44

2x = 118

x = 118/2

x = 59

The number of games lost is 59
