She lost 6 games. Since she won twice the amount she lost (6) you would multiply 6 by 2 to get the number of games she won, which would be 12. To check if you are correct you could add the games lost (6) to the games won(12) which should give you the total games played (18)

Answer:

6 is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Twice 6 is 12, and 6 + 12 = 18. Let x = losses, then 2x = wins, and x + 2x = 18, so x = 6.
