1. The problem states that a total of 15 goals were scored by three players: Keshore, Lester, and Richard.
2. The symbols represent goals: ◎ is a full goal, and ◐ is a half goal.
3. From the table:
- Keshore has 3 full circles: $3 \times \text{(value of ◎)}$
- Lester has 2 full circles: $2 \times \text{(value of ◎)}$
- Richard has 2 full circles and 1 half circle: $2 \times \text{(value of ◎)} + 0.5 \times \text{(value of ◎)}$
4. Let the number of goals represented by ◎ be $x$.
5. Total goals equation:
$$3x + 2x + (2x + 0.5x) = 15$$
6. Simplify the left side:
$$3x + 2x + 2x + 0.5x = 7.5x$$
7. So:
$$7.5x = 15$$
8. Solve for $x$:
$$x = \frac{15}{7.5} = 2$$
9. Therefore, each ◎ represents 2 goals.
Final answer: 2 goals
