You have $15 and admission is $5, so you know have $10 before doing any games. If you wanted to play 12 games, you would need $10.20, which you do not have. But, if you wanted to play 11 games, then you would need $9.35, which is just under $10.

So the maximum amount of games that you could play would be 11 games.
