Cat and her friends are playing a game involving decimals. So far, they have scored a total of 100.2 points.

1. Bo scored 38.65 points.
2. Mike scored 29 points.

Questions:

A. How many points did Cat score?

B. How many points did Bo score?

C. Who scored 29 points?

D. What is the total score of all three players?

Answer :

Let's solve this step-by-step:

1. Total Score: The total points scored by all players together is 100.2 points.

2. Bo's Score: Bo scored 38.65 points.

3. Mike's Score: Mike scored 29 points.

4. Cat's Score: To find out how many points Cat scored, we subtract the points scored by Bo and Mike from the total score:

[tex]\[
\text{Cat's score} = \text{Total score} - \text{Bo's score} - \text{Mike's score}
\][/tex]

Plug in the numbers:

[tex]\[
\text{Cat's score} = 100.2 - 38.65 - 29
\][/tex]

When you do the subtraction, Cat scored approximately 32.55 points.

5. Combined Score: If you add up all the individual scores (Bo's score, Mike's score, and Cat's score), you will confirm the total score again as 100.2 points.

In conclusion:
- Bo scored 38.65 points.
- Mike scored 29 points.
- Cat scored approximately 32.55 points.
- The combined score of the three players is 100.2 points.
