Can some one explain the relationship between Total, Solo, and assisted tackles

Does that mean:

1 solo and 1 assisted tackle = 2 total tackles

or

1 solo and 1 assisted tackle = 1.5 total tackles

Thanks,

If you click on the link you can see that 1 solo + 1 assist = 2 total tackles.

A solo tackle is a tackle by just that one player.

An assist is one where the player makes a tackle along with at least one other player at the same time (i.e. two or more players tackle the ball carrier at the same time).

Total is the solo tackle plus assists.
