A baseball team will play 12 home games during the season. It has played 6 home games so far. Of the season's remaining games, 1/3 will be played at home. How many games, g, remain in the season?

18

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of home games = 12

Number of played home games = 6

Hence,

Number of unplayed home games = 12 - 6 = 6

Let the number of remaining games be x

Of the remaining games, he will be playing 1/3 at home

This simply means that the number of unplayed home games will be 1/3 of the total remaining games

Now expressing this mathematically,

(1/3) * x = 6

By cross multiplication,

1 * x = 3 * 6

Hence, x = 18
