Answer:

17 video games

Explanation:

To find how much video games John can buy:

1, 042 divided by 59 = 17. 66 but since you can't buy a part of a video game, it's 17.

To check how much money you have left over:

Multiply 59 by 17 = 1, 003.

1, 003 is how much money he paid for 17 video games.

$1,042 - $1,003 = $39 left.

Hope you understand!
