Answer:

5

Explanation:

Tina started with $20, but had to spend $3.25 on the bat.

$20-$3.25 = $16.75, which is all she has left for rounds.

Each round costs $3.00

$16.75 divided by $3.00 comes out to 5.58 rounds, but since she can't play 1/2 a round, that means she could only play 5 rounds

5 rounds X $3.00 per round comes to $15.00
