(E) 192 192
Answer
Correct choice: (B)
正确答案:(B)
Solution
(B) Each team plays 10 games in its own division and 6 games against teams in the other division. So each of the 12 teams plays 16 conference games. Because each game involves two teams, there are $\frac{12\times16}{2}=96$ games scheduled.
(B) 每支球队在本分区进行 10 场比赛,并与另一个分区的球队进行 6 场比赛。因此,12 支球队中每支球队都要打 16 场联盟比赛。由于每场比赛涉及两支球队,所以安排的比赛总数为 $\frac{12\times16}{2}=96$ 场。
