The track team won a total of 18 medals. Three of the medals were gold. There were twice as many bronze medals as silver medals. How many bronze medals did the track team win?

Silver = S

Bronze = 2S

 

18 - 3  Gold Medals = 15 Bronze and Silver.

 

S + 2S = 15

3S = 15

S = 15 / 3

S = 5 Silver Medals

5 x 2 = 10 Bronze Medals.
