24 kris
12 julio

if they score 36 together and kris scored twice as much as julio than you divide it by 3 an give 2/3 as kris score than 1/3 as julios score

For this case, the first thing we must do is define a variable.

We have then:

x: number of points scored by Julio.

The amount of points Kris scores is:

[tex] 2x
[/tex]

Then, together they scored 36 points:

[tex] x + 2x = 36
[/tex]

From here, we clear the value of x:

[tex] 3x = 36

x = 12
[/tex]

Therefore, Julio scored 12 points.

For Kris we have:

[tex] 2x = 2 (12) = 24
[/tex]

Therefore, Kris scored 24 points.

Answer:

Kris = 24 points

July = 12 points

The equation is:

[tex] x + 2x = 36 [/tex]
