So last year Anton paid $2,065 as a total golfing fee, that’s one year. Anton pays an annual membership fee of $895, that means he pays $895 each year for membership fee.
So subtract $895 from $2,065, you get $1,170 left.
Now every time Anton plays golf, he pays $30 for greens fee, he will be spending $30 each time he play.
So we would use division here, $1,170 divided by $30, you get 39.
Anton played 39 games last year.
