Answer:

Craig has

$25−$5.25 for shoes. In other words, he has $19.75 Now when you divide this amount by $4.00, you will get numbers of games he played.

$19.75

$4

=4.9375

or only 4 games.

Answer: 4 games

Step-by-step explanation: 25-5.25=19.75

19.75 divided by 4 = 4.9375 (but let's say its 4)

Or you could use the subtraction way 19.75 - 4 and continue until you cant subtract it by 4 anymore

The changes he be left with us $3.75
