Complete question is given below;

Tracy had a total of $200 to spend while shopping. She has already spent $122 on clothes. She wants to buy some video games that are on sale for $20 each, including tax. Enter the maximum number of video games Tracy can buy with the remaining money.

Answer:

Tracy can buy maximum of 3 video games with the remaining money.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total money to spend on shopping = $200

Money spend on clothes = $122

Cost of each video game = $20

We need to find the number of Video games she could buy.

Solution:

Let the number of video games be 'x'.

So we can say that;

Money spend on clothes plus Cost of each video game multiplied by number of Video games should be less than or equal to Total money to spend on shopping.

framing in equation form we get;

$122+20x\leq 200$

Now by subtraction property of Inequality we will subtract both side by 122 we get;

$122+20x-122\leq 200-122\\\\20x\leq 78$

Now dividing both side by 20 using division property of inequality we get;

$\frac{20x}{20}\leq \frac{78}{20}\\\\x\leq 3.9$

Hence Tracy can buy maximum of 3 video games with the remaining money.
