The amount of pins that you knock down after 10 frames. If you get a spare (knock down all 10 pins in two shots), the number of pins you knock down on your next throw get added to that frame. If you get a Strike(all 10 in one shot), you get the next two throws added to that frame. 9/ 90 9/ X X 90 10+9 = 19 (first frame) 19+9 = 28 (second frame) 28+10(spare)+10(strike in 4th frame) = 48 (third frame total) 48+10(strike)+10(strike in 5th frame) + 9(first ball in 6th frame) = 77 (4th frame total) 77+10(strike in 5th) + 9 0(2 balls in 6th frame) = 96 (5th frame total) 96 + 9(total from 6th frame) = 107 (6th frame total) Hope this helps.
