Answer
187 players on 17 teams
Work Step by Step
Create a table showing the number of players (p) as the number of teams (t) increases.
$\underline{t}\ \ \ \ \underline{\ p\ }$
$1\ \ \ \ \ 11$
$2\ \ \ \ \ 22$
$3\ \ \ \ \ 33$
$4\ \ \ \ \ 44$
$5\ \ \ \ \ 55$
Since there are 11 players on each team, multiply the number of teams by 11 to find the number of players.
$p=11t$
Substitute 17 for t to find the number of players on 17 teams.
$p=11(17)=187$
