There are 16 teams in a basketball league. Eight teams are in the East conference, and the other eight teams are in the West conference. If a team plays each other team from the same conference 4 times and from the difference conference twice, how many games are there in total?

IInside each  conference,  the number of  games played  = 

     

4 [ 7 + 6 + 5 + 4 + 3 + 2  + 1] =  4 * 28  =    112  games

 

Between  the  conferences   2* ( 8 * 8)   =   128  games are played

 

So  the total games played =  

 

2 * 112  +  128   = 

 

352
