Hey there!

First, we must sbubtract the cost of the video player from her savings:

400 - 275 = 125

If she has 125 dollars left to buy games, we can divide 125 by 39 to get about 3.2 games. Since you can't have a fraction fo a game, she can buy the video game player and 3 games.

Hope this helps!
