Answer 1

To determine how many games Isaiah can afford at each bowling alley with his $25, we can divide his total budget by the price per game for each alley.

1. Alley Cats: \[ \text{Price per game} = $3.97 \] \[ \text{Number of games} = \frac{25}{3.97} \approx 6.293 \] Isaiah can afford 6 games at Alley Cats. \[ \text{Total cost for 6 games} = 6 \times 3.97 = 23.82 \]

2. Bowlera: \[ \text{Price per game} = $5.49 \] \[ \text{Number of games} = \frac{25}{5.49} \approx 4.55 \] Isaiah can afford 4 games at Bowlera. \[ \text{Total cost for 4 games} = 4 \times 5.49 = 21.96 \]

3. Pin Can: \[ \text{Price per game} = $4.22 \] \[ \text{Number of games} = \frac{25}{4.22} \approx 5.92 \] Isaiah can afford 5 games at Pin Can. \[ \text{Total cost for 5 games} = 5 \times 4.22 = 21.10 \]

4. Bowl n Skate: \[ \text{Price per game} = $5.32 \] \[ \text{Number of games} = \frac{25}{5.32} \approx 4.694 \] Isaiah can afford 4 games at Bowl n Skate. \[ \text{Total cost for 4 games} = 4 \times 5.32 = 21.28 \]

Conclusion

The only options he can afford while being able to purchase the exact number of games specified in the options are:

• 6 games at Alley Cats
• 5 games at Pin Can

Therefore, the correct responses are:

• 6 games at Alley Cats
• 5 games at Pin Can
