Answer:

22 games

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the minimum number of games that Enzo played we need to find the least common multiple of tickets where both Enzo and Beatrice are equal. To do this we simply find all the multiples of the number of games each could have played by the number of tickets per game until we find one in common.

5*1 = 5 11*1 = 11

5*2 = 10 11*2 = 22

5*3 = 15 11*3 = 33

5*4 = 20 11*4 = 44

5*5 = 25 11*5 = 55

... ...

5*22 = 110 11*10 = 110

Finally, we can see that the minimum amount of games that Enzo needs to play in order for both Enzo and Beatrice to have the same amount of tickets is 22 games.
